Draw takes place on the 24th. The top 32 on the Main OoM will be seeded in the usual brackets and they will be joined on the left hand side of the draw by the remaining 8 on the Main OoM as well as randomly drawn players from the Pro Tour OoM to make 64 on that side. This side will be drawn against international qualifiers as well as the remaining Pro Tour qualifiers.

There will be a minimum 85 from this years 128 Tour Card holders in the field

No. The 33-64 next ranked will go onto the left hand side of the draw along side the seeds and will face the international qualifiers plus players ranked 65-80.

The 33-64 will be randomly bracketed along side the top 32 so they aren't seeded. In theory number 33 ranked could face the number 1 seed in round 2 if drawn that way and if they both win their first round games.

87 out of the 128 current tour card holders will be at the worlds. When you consider the likes of Tim woulters and jules van dongen have zero chance it really does give tour card holders a high chance of qualifying. Max of 46 players will be playing for 5 spots in the tour card qualifier next Monday

Yes, it's very stop/start for the players - turn up for one game, go home for a week, rinse/repeat for the first few rounds.

I understand there's no going back to the old days, but definitely miss the Lakeside format of playing 5 games in 8 days, everyone staying on site etc.

Must be especially tough for any of the Asian/Australasian players who progress - obviously a nice pay-bump for every round you win, but having to spend a good chunk of it on airfares between games or alternatively paying for London hotels.

Jose de Sousa the biggest name in Monday's tour card qualifier. From an Irish POV Dylan slevin is in it too. Full list of eligible players below

Dylan slevin one of the top 5 seeds in this, let's hope he can turn that into winning one of the 5 places. He needs to or else he definitely loses his tour card.

If the games play out according to the seedlings he will end up playing 6th seed Jose de Sousa in the final round

Andy Boulton up next for Slevin

De Sousa qualifies

The 5 qualifiers via the PDPA Tour Card Holder qualifier are Jose De Sousa, Adam Hunt, Tavis Dudeney, Stephen Burton, Haupai Puha

De Sousa won this final leg decider in the last match to secure his place!
