The 2009 USCA Grand Prix results are in and Croquet World has a fantastic article with photos breaking down the season. Ben Rothman took the overall Grand Prix title and also finished first in both the doubles and singles standings. Rothman's frequent doubles partner Doug Grimsley was second overall and second in doubles play. Following Rothman (18,570 singles points) in singles play -- 2. Danny Huneycutt (15,525) 3. Jeff Soo (13,800 ) 4. Doug Grimsley (11,810) 5. John C. Osborn (11,180).

The most interesting part of the Grand Prix croquet article for me is the description of Rothman's croquet nomad lifestyle. For a lot of older croquet player's locked into careers and mortgages, Rothman is living the dream. He's a great ambassador for the sport and Puma needs to give this guy a shoe contract or something right away.
