DAY 6: VENUE CHANGES

The Plate blocks changed venues today: A through D moved up the coast to Waikanae, joined by block H, while E through G played at the now-notorious Plimmerton lawns. With little wind, scores were generally higher at Plimmerton than on previous days, but there were no successful triple peels at either venue today. The Waikanae lawns have become a touch more challenging as sections continue to dry out.

The eight block winners were drawn at random into a best-of-three KO; the first round is tomorrow at Waikanae. Callum Hyland and Trevor Bassett took the initiative to organize a Z event as a flexible Swiss, welcomed by many players who would otherwise have no options to play with three days remaining in the tournament.
