BACKGROUND
Hi friends,
For my 30th birthday, I (hazelynut) will be sponsoring the inaugural “Hazely's Nut Cup," a $100 online tournament for foreign (non-Korean) StarCraft players.
I intended to host this tournament 7 years ago, but was much too shy to host a tournament in my name.

However, given that I am now 30 years of age, I give many fewer fks. I am therefore happy to announce registration for this very important, very prestigious tournament.

Hi, my name is Mona “hazelynut” Zhang. I’m a Princeton alumna, software engineer, entrepreneur, and currently funemployed housewife. Brood War was my love from 2008-2011, and was instrumental in shaping the course of my life, forging friendships and even my marriage with my former 2v2 partner. This is a fun photobomb of Brood War progamers. I hope to show good games.![[image loading]](https://www.monazsh.com/assets/brood-war-pros.jpg)
3. (Optional) Consider donating $5 to the WWF for Australia’s bushfire emergency: https://tiltify.com/@hazelynut/nutlings4australia
Thank you very much for you time and interest. Please tell your friends. Good games and Brood War 4eva.
