Hi there.
KPMC 2012 is about few days to start.
But in 2014 the WAGC will be in South Korea... and organized by the KABA, that also runs the KPMC.. will we have the two big amateurs tournaments in Korea the same year?
By the way, the players list in KPMC seems that is not up-to-date.
Also, I've read in some sources that the WAGC 2013 would be happenning in... August-September 2013!! that's quite a different time of the year!
Greetings
KPMC 2012 and WAGC 2013 dates..

Re: KPMC 2012 and WAGC 2013 dates..
The 2013 WAGC will be held at Sendai, the beautiful ancient Japanese city devastated by the tsunami but has since miraculously recovered. The date is tentatively set for August 30 to September 6.
The 2014 WAGC will be held in Korea. This is part of the plan to spread out the sponsorship of IGF outside of Japan. From 2014 to 2016, Korea will be the president country of IGF and will be responsible for organizing the WAGC in 2014 and 2015, among other duties. The host organizer is KBA (or Hankuk Kiwon), not KABA.
