2014 AUSTRALIAN OPEN PRO-AM

An important change to the 2014 Australian Open Pro Am…. plus announcement of the prize purse break down.

Firstly let me explain the major change to the event... Unfortunately due to lack of entries for jump, a very hard decision had to be made, which was to eliminate jump from the 2014 tournament for both Men & Women%E2%80%A6. This decision wasn't made lightly, and all efforts were made to keep jump in the event%E2%80%A6 However, as I am sure you understand, to include jump we must have entries, and as at today (2 weeks to cut off) we hadn't received any jump entries and an impressive amount of slalom entries %E2%80%A6 While we tried to put off this hard decision for as long as possible, a decision had to made today..

The good news is that I can now release the prize money status for slalom in both Men & Women… 

In the men’s division the prize money currently stands at a minimum of $10,000 and for the women, a minimum of $6000… (There are still spots available for Pro and Ams)

Breakdowns are –

Men Slalom –                            Women Slalom -

1^st place - $5,000                      1^st place - $3,000

2^nd place - $2,500                     2^nd place - $1,500
