Results for June 16 – June 30, 2011
Greetings and welcome to International Tournament Roundup! Sick of wading through countless threads, posts, and articles looking for recent SC2 tournament results? The TeamLiquid International Tournament Roundup is the one-stop shop for all of your tournament result needs, and it's coming to you twice each and every month.
Don't be fooled, the GSL is great, but there's a massive amount of talent outside of Korea. Foreign juggernauts are battling it out in epic games, and in epic tournaments, on a daily basis. After all, our boys have more than proven that they can compete.
Who's the current top dog outside of Korea?
Please note that if an event is not listed, it is likely because it either didn't make the prizemoney cutoff, or results were simply not properly recorded in public view by tournament administration. Don't blame me, blame the event admins. I can't do their job for them. Thanks!

Top Dog
There's a ton of powerhouses outside of Korea, but who's this edition's top dog? Let's take a look at which players have posted the most impressive results over the past 2 weeks.
Note: This isn't a simple prize-money or medals ranking. It is based upon a combination of overall player performance, quality of competition, significance of events won, money won, activity, and my most sincere attempt at unbiased subjectivity. It only considers performances in events which concluded within this period.
+ Show Spoiler [Honorable Mentions] +
![[image loading]](http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/images/players/1137.jpg)
Tarson !!A foreign BroodWar mainstay, Tarson has thus far taken up a similar role in SC2. Attending the Homestory Cup III alongside juggernauts such as
IdrA, 
ThorZaIN, 
Bischu, 
DIMAGA, 
GoOdy, and 
Adelscott, there admittedly wasn't a whole lot expected of this player, especially when he fell to the loser's bracket in the very first round. "The &%*#ing Tarson" then surprised everyone as he rallied back, taking out each and every one of the aforementioned players, not in single games, but in BO3 series play. He eventually fell to 
MC, but not before taking a game off of the Protoss powerhouse. Total Prizewinnings: ~$? USD
(Tarson took home an undisclosed portion of ~€1,250 which was spread among the players.)
![[image loading]](http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/images/players/1636.jpg)
CatZ !!The fan-favorite Zerg's results for this edition are as unique as the player himself.
CatZ cleaned up the small Eye of Esports opening event, but this was the only standard tournament that he managed to find results in. His additional successes included the flawless 4-0 defense of his title in "The V" showmatch series, as well as the taking 1st place in the largest 2v2 event I've ever heard of, sharing a whopping $750 with his partner 
Drewbie.Total Prizewinnings: ~$575 USD
![[image loading]](http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/images/players/1272.jpg)
SarenS !!While he may have only posted a single result, it was definitely a major one.
SarenS showed that it was his day in the country of France, with a friendly slaying of his fellow French players in the eOSL Summer '11 event. Along with this victory, he had the pleasure of bringing home the biggest piece of the staggeringly large prize pool pie.Total Prizewinnings: ~$2,892 USD

Third+ Show Spoiler [Third] +
![[image loading]](http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/images/players/2071.jpg)
dde !!This recently monstrous Terran is showing no signs of letting up.
dde snatched up another large $1,000+ event this past couple weeks in the Thermaltake Esports Challenge, placing over terrifying players such as CrunCher and SeleCT. In addition to this, he placed 2nd in the Map of the Month event. I'm not going to lie, I had a few doubts on whether dde's success would continue so soon, but at this point I'm done counting this guy out.Total Prizewinnings: ~$1,550 USD

HuK !!"Wait what? But.. There were... Koreans!?" That's right, a major LAN event which included some of the highest regarded top Korean player(s) was finally taken down by a non-Korean. Oh... And I guess I should probably mention that he did it TWICE in 2 weeks. While he may be considered Korean-trained by the standards of many, and it certainly is a testament to the Korean method of practice, there's no denying the significance of his victories.
HuK took gold in both DreamHack Summer and the Homestory Cup III, some of the most competitive events with some of the biggest prize pools around. There's nothing left to do but sit back and cheer our home town hero toward the next obvious step up: Code "S" Gold. Until then, he'll just have to settle for being Top Dog. =PTotal Prizewinnings: ~$19,111 USD
