No clue on Vilips. I'll see if I can get some info once they are back. Could be that Vilips had/is having challenges getting back into the US from his home in Australia or complying with COVID protocols for travel to Hawaii. Could be an injury. Could be that he simply didn't play well in the qualifier.

Sadly they are playing arguably the least interesting resort course on the Kohala Coast - Hapuna Beach. It's too bad given how many courses in that area are so much better (both resort & private courses). It's the one course over there that my wife and I refuse to play. It's just not very interesting.

We have been there many times as family members purchased one of those townhouses on the course when they opened. The gals like Hapuna because it is easier than Mauna Kea, e.g. (Too many traps they yell) Low scores should rule. It has always been in great shape and lower scores than the mainland are a nice present. I doubt the tournament could get on at Mauna Kea and Waikaloa isn't any more interesting than Hapuna. Would love to be there now. What courses do you think would be better?
