The winner of this tournament gains 100 points in the Toyota Bassmaster Angler of the Year rankings.
This Championship Sunday is stacked with finalists who are also ranked high in the AOY rankings. From the top, today’s lineup features Drew Cook (660 points–2nd place), Chris Zaldain (654 points—3rd place), Stetson Blaylock (649 points—6th place), Seth Feider (644 points—8th place), Brandon Lester (628 points—10th place) and Jamie Hartman (627 points—11th place).
Absent from the Championship Sunday list is the current leader, Scott Canterbury. With so many high-ranking AOY contenders fishing today—without Canterbury—they all stand to make a charge at his lead. With only four regular season competition days remaining this AOY race is worth watching.
