Due to growing concerns about the Covid outbreak across the US, the NAGF Pro Qualification Tournament has been postponed.
The main reasons for this decision were:
- New Covid cases are growing rapidly across the US, including in Washington DC, which hosts the National Go Center, the venue for this tournament.
- The Delta variant is known to make even some fully vaccinated people sick.
- The tournament would have taken place indoors for hours, which is a serious concern for viral spreading.
The new dates of the tournament are to be announced later.
