Where have you read that he is confirmed there, Greenleaf? The official website that you linked to does not have his name in the list of players, and in the news section they mention that last year he said he would return this year, and that the officials are going to remind him of his promise. It doesn't sound all that definite yet, unless you have information from elsewhere?

Got this off SteveG as always.
Boggo is playing here.
He should play in Wrexham the week before ( he could also be in Australia!!), so he may have to skip this.
Boggo will have to try RR at some stage, this event is in florida as well and he has a base overthere, as 1st alt he may have no choice soon, unless he pulls out now.
but it would also mean a lot of travelling with wrexham and begamo being his likey events either side although he could play 4 events in the US in a row (3 ch, + beach) instead althougth i dont think thats too likely, as would miss the indoor events over here.

Round robin might be good for a player like Boggo - if it was a KO, he'd be almost certain to get someone higher-ranked in R1. In a RR, he's likely to get two higher-ranked opponents, but that's two chances to cause an upset (and score some points) instead of just one.
If I was a player who was just scraping into main draws, I'd definitely aim for the RR Events.

The Challengers in US are also indoors, so you never know... Boggo didn't mind travelling this year, he went from Europe to Bangkok and then back to Europe for Mons instead of playing in Tokyo. So he could opt for an unconventional schedule of Wrexham, Delray Beach and then Bergamo.
the wakiola one loks like hard. maybe he will play wrex the go to the states for delray, dallas and joplin. but probably right now alex doesnt even know where he will go. he might try fr more atps, he seems to be entering a few now.

Boggo can pull out and play elsewhere even if someone pulls out and he is IN here. You can only not play elsewhere if you made the cut on the original entry list
