What's everyone's opinion on the new schedule for the final table?
For those who aren't aware, play schedule remains the same as previous years until they get down to the final nine players on July 14.
The final nine all receive 9th place payout $ & go home to rest, study up their opponents & get ready to play again.
They reconvene November 9th & play it out for 2 days.
ESPN will start airing weekly coverage the third week of July to finish up the week before the final table & will edit the final table coverage in 2 days to air November 14th.
The objective is to build interest in the tourney & make it air like a professional sports league with the final table being a playoff atmosphere.
