CANARY WHARF CLASSIC

Now that I base myself a lot in The Netherlands, namely Den Haag, it's great to see Tommy Berden and his team secure the rights the to 2011 Men's World Open to be staged in Amsterdam! It should be an unbelievable event which will be held in conjunction with the Womens World Open. But for now my main focus is the Canary Wharf Classic starting on the 23rd. It's a pretty strong draw this year as I've got current World No.3, Frenchie, Greg Guiltier first round. He lost first round last year and I managed to make the final so we'll see if I can continue that trend this year....
With not many big events on the calendar at the moment it seems all the top guys have chosen to play this event, with 8 of the worlds Top 10 competing. It's a split first round and I'm on the 2nd day (23rd).
