The Grand Prix circuit returns to Singapore for 2011 as expected, but Bangkok's spot is instead taken over by Grand Prix Shanghai. Given the current rise of Chinese Magic players in the PT and GP circuit, it only makes sense for Wizards of the Coast to show their support and hopefully spur more interest within the Chinese players.



2 more Grand Prix are scheduled in Asia, namely Kobe and Hiroshima in Japan, followed by Brisbane, Australia, leaving Malaysians with only 1 Grand Prix that's easily within reach, but 5 Grand Prix that wouldn't cost too much of a bomb to get to for 2011.
