hirty-seven women competed at this $1600-added event which benefitted Susan G. Komen, Florida. In a modified double-elimination format, the women played down to four on each side. Four players from both sides of the bracket redrew onto a final single-elimination board.

sa Seaver 5-2, McIntosh took the win from Cuellar 5-1, and Monk defeated Frost 5-1. In the Semi-Final matches McIntosh stopped Monk 5-2, and the Seaver sisters paired up with Jeannie winning 5-2 over “Ness.” That left Seaver and McIntosh in the final match, with Seaver taking the win 5-3. Seaver has won this event so many times that we have lost count, giving it up only a few times over past years. Room owner Stephanie Mitchell won the event in 2018, and Crystal McCormick took the title back around 2014. This was the first TFT event since March due to Covid-19. It was great to see everyone again, even if only from

All players received Cues for the Cure T-shirts and pink masks. All monies raised through the raffles and other games benefitted Susan G. Komen, Florida. Shanelle Loraine guessed the number of Hershey Kisses and Elizabeth Tully won the M&Ms! We cannot thank everyone enough for their support and contributions to this worthy event!
