Manhattan Beach.
Take a look at what I did here. I used the book that was linked at the sales site into a Reference for the sentence about the tournament. I also edited the wording so it would be appropriate for inclusion in an encyclopedia. Do not add the link to the sales site again, in no instance is it appropriate for inclusion in a Wikipedia article. Thank you.--kelapstick (talk) 19:20, 10 June 2009 (UTC)
