Tournament has started!
More on the 2017 Tournament
Wearing a mask in a Rook Tournament game has happened in the past. We dug up some photos from the 2011 Tournament and there were two photos of a team wearing some sort of mask. Richard & Bob won the Tournament that year.
Due to Covid-19 stipulations, longtime player Ben could not make the trip from Pennsylvania this Tournament year. Today we want to take a look at his Rook Tournament career. In his 17 tournaments, Ben has always teamed up with his cousin Kyle and they managed to place 5 times including championships in 2007 and 2018.
Ben has a 36-31 career record which ranks 16th among active players. Thank you Ben for making a positive contribution to the Beach House Rook Tournament.
The picture provided is of Ben & Kyle winning the 2007 championship!

Today we look at seeding. 10 championships have been won by the top-seeded team. The lowest seed ever to win the Rook Tournament is #8 and it has been done twice. Kathy and Cindy were seeded #8 when they won the 2012 Tournament and Ben & Kyle did the same in 2018.
