Notables Falling Fast

Most of the pros and experienced players that come to the LAPT stops rave about how soft the fields are. In general, we'd have to agree as some of the early play is questionable at best.

Still, it's not always such easy going for the top-tier players. Just in summary, take a look at the notables who've already been sent packing in the first five levels:

Gualter Salles
Jose Brenes
Juan Jose Perez
Alexandre Gomes
Pieter de Korver
Andre Akkari
Neil Channing

That's about a third of the players we recognize by sight, and they've already made their way out the door. Perhaps it's that pristine beach just down the road that's partially to blame for all of the early exits.
