I tweeted this chart out when I updated with GP Denver but I realized it belonged here as well. Brad Nelson has had a crazy last four GPs: an undefeated win in Omaha, then a 6-0 drafting performance for 13-2 in Kyoto (he finished 11th on breakers), then he reached the top 8 of Minneapolis (lost in quarters), and now he’s won again in Denver. Making top 8 in three GPs out of four attended is pretty rare — only eleven people have done it (some multiple times) and it hasn’t been done in two years.
Made top 8 in three Grands Prix out of four attended. (bold: top 8, blue: win)

Note that Owen and Yuuya are the only two to have a streak of four individual GP top 8s in a row, and both of them were part of stretches of five out of six!
