*********************************************

The Reno-Tahoe Open is taking place at the par 72 Montreux Golf and Country Club which is between the 2 locations that make up the name of the event. The big news of this tournament is that Michelle Wie has a chance to not sign her scorecard or do something stupid along those lines in a mens event (and if she does and it upsets her, Im right here to comfort her ). The defending champ is FLEST (playing in the WGC so wont be defending here), and the winner takes home $540,000.
