Stacey Grand Prix
Terry Stacey was 5 dan and twice British Champion. He was killed in a motorcycle accident on 29th February 1988. In his memory, the Association set up an annual competition. In each open, face-to-face, even-game, Association-recognised tournament in the UK, during the year ending at the British Go Congress, a point is scored for each win achieved above the McMahon bar. The winner gets to hold the unique trophy for a year.
As announced in the news, only face-to-face (as opposed to online) tournaments are to be included in the Grand Prix, so the 2020-2021 season was cancelled, and the 2021-2022 season ran from the British Open at Leicester.
To start with, Francis Roads was the most consistent player in the results table, appearing every year from 1990 to 2009, amassing 542 Stacey Points; he won four times in Isle of Man years, but later won a remarkable three times in a row. Since 2015 Alistair Wall has been the man to beat, also winning three years in a row, with Toby Manning close behind.
