Oh, is That the Time?

Time flies when you're having fun! Believe it or not, it has now been three hours since we lost Erik Sagstrom from this tournament in 3rd place. Seems like only two hours ago...

Even more staggering is that it's been almost fourteen hours since we lost Erik Seidel in 8th place sometime yesterday afternoon, as we are about to enter into our 17th hour of play for the day.
