What is the Welsh Open?
The Welsh Open is one of the UK’s largest tournaments, and it is held in Newport, Wales. Next year, the eighth Welsh Open will be held over the weekend of January 28th / 29th, using a ruleset slightly different to that detailed above (we have matched it as closely as possible with coding limitations).
Full Welsh Open VIII information can be found in this thread.
