I do understand the numbers who move on but had never seen them so designated. Since there is still one more day of rounds I wonder if the cut has already been made. I had thought that the top 3 scores would be used to determine the semi's and then on to the finals. I hope that you are at the NATS and enjoying the good competition and companionship of those in this great sport. Ron and I have been together for about 50 years now so I do know quite a bit about the sport. And last year I did attend the NATS because it was the World's and it really is one fantastic time with so many great people.
