How does one enter an open? list of open tournaments? What are the other types of tournaments? When did this type become famous? Dwarf Kirlston 23:22, 11 October 2007 (UTC)
Unsigned comment
One dictionary I consulted defined the sports-related use of the word "open" as a type of tournament in which both professionals and amateurs are able to qualify for competition. (cf. http://wordnet.princeton.edu)
Might this distinction be the basis of the perceived age distinction noted in the current wikipedia definition?
National "open championships"
Isn't it the case, that people from other countries may enter national open championships? For example when it's Finnish Open Championships, people from Sweden or other neighbouring countries may participate. --90.191.166.161 (talk) 14:34, 9 October 2011 (UTC)
