Tagged because at least two editors to this article have been single-purpose accounts with usernames that contain the tour's abbreviated name. Looking at the edits, they are also excessively promotional in content. Frankly, this organization seems to just coast on tournaments others organize with no significant contribution or impact. oknazevad (talk) 22:10, 29 January 2022 (UTC)
