Event #1 WCOAP World Amateur Team Championship

[Chipaccrual]

On a serious note, Austria have entered a team in the past!

Last time was 2009, and they didn"t turn up  

Two did, and two didn"t.  Felt very sorry for the two guys who did make it and although we tried to talk them into playing, they took the decision not to enter.

Didn"t realise that; I just remember playing againt 1 in the 6-max and assumed they had a team... a reasonable assumption given that he was in his "Team Austria" shirt

Sigh.  We"ve tried a few.  Jen Mason is doing updates at the Irish Open that week.  Deborah Worley-Roberts can"t play for personal reasons. An other can"t travel due to torn ligaments in his leg(s).  And on and on we go.  So pleeeeeeeeease everyone...if you know of any Yank who would like to join the team, give us a shout. Cheers!
