With less than two months remaining in the Senior Tour season, the race for the money title heats up this week at The Golf Center at Kings Island.

The top five on the money list are all playing this week, led by Bruce Fleisher. After winning seven titles and amassing more than0 $2.5 million last season as a rookie, Fleisher has carried over his success in 2000. He has captured four titles and stands atop the money list with $2,085,406.

Fleisher enters this event with five straight top-five finishes, including third at last week's Comfort Classic. He will look to improve his performance on this course from a year ago, when he tied for 32nd in one of his worst outings of 1999.

Larry Nelson arrives in Ohio on a hot streak, having won his last two events. After capturing the FleetBoston Classic three weeks ago, Nelson followed that up with a victory at the Foremost Insurance Championship one week later for his fourth title of the season.

Nelson's back-to-back wins moved him past Hale Irwin for second in season earnings with $1,938,355, and a good showing this week, especially with a $210,000 first prize, could move him past Fleisher atop the money list. He was runner-up here in 1998.

A well-rested Irwin returns from a two-week break to make his charge for a third money title in four years. Irwin has won three titles this season and accumulated $1,825,348. He enters this event with top-10 finishes in his last nine starts; overall, he has 15 top-10s in 18 events.

Dana Quigley, who is fourth on the money list with $1,614,853, will make his 122nd straight Senior Tour start as he vies for his second title of the season.

Gil Morgan will attempt to successfully defend a title for the second straight week. On Sunday, he was declared the winner of the Comfort Classic when rain forced the cancellation of the final round.

Morgan has won three titles this season and is fifth in earnings with $1,461,310. He comes into this event on a roll, finishing either first or second in four of his last five starts.

Last year, Morgan shot a final-round 7-under-par 63 to claim a two-stroke victory over Ed Dougherty.

Other former champions in the field include 1998 winner Hugh Baiocchi; 1997 champion Jay Sigel; 1996 winner and two-time runner-up Isao Aoki; and 1994 champion Jim Colbert.

Next week, the tour heads to Dallas for the Bank One Championship, where Tom Watson will defend a Senior Tour title for the first time.
