The players meeting was at 7:00 p.m., and it started a little late. As soon as we walked in the tournament room, I saw Jimmy Reid, smiling as always.
Danny Diliberto just got in from Boston, a long drive, and he got really lost. He finally found somebody who would let him follow them to Chesapeake Conference Center and paid them 20 bucks.
Tony Robles is here with his young son, whose grown at least a foot since I saw him a year ago.
Corey Duel has a new line of cues out called Woodpecker cues. He was showing Ronnie Wiseman one he designed himself.
InsidePOOL is here and everybody is enjoying the complimentary copy of the magazine. Alex the Lion is on the front cover for winning the WPC. I also got a copy of the U.S. Open program, which has pictures of every single U.S. Open winner. There's a cool picture of Louie Roberts.
Johnny Archer practiced for a spell and looks like he's on top of the world.
Keith has to play Ryan "The Genie Man" McCreesh first round, a guy who lives in our neck of the woods, tomorrow at 7:00 p.m.
The TV table and four tables surrounding it have blue cloth, and all other tables have the traditional green cloth.
I heard they had 199 players, but I'm not sure if that has changed.
Most of the young guns went over to Q-Masters for action.
Not much going on. The conference center is now locked up, allowing the vendors to set up and the clean-up folks to get the room ready for the first day of the Open.
We're staying low tonight and resting for tomorrow! Will report more later.
