At least X-Factor didn't win.

124 for the final Challenge Tour event of the year. Jason Cullen, Nick Fullwell, Ashley Holgate and Mike De Decker given byes to the last 64.

That's a fair bit lower than normally right? I guess those also-rans probably want to just get home and watch the Grand Slam than slum away for a relative pittance

Yeah, the numbers are always going down towards the end of the season. Not so coincidentally the tournament averages have gone up at the same time.

The Ally Pally race could be over at the first hurdle.

Cammy losing 2-1 to Jack Todd with both averaging below 75.

Wins 4 legs straight but a poor performance.

Needs Harris to lose the plot in his first round game against Craig Quinn.

Menzies is still alive, won 5-2. Martin Atkins (Wigan), Dennis Nilsson and Andy Boulton still in with a squeak of a tour card and Ally Pally, though would need to win and may need snookers as well

Portela is in the UK Open for the first time, and Worsley will be returning there too as Budgen goes cashless in DT20

Keep in mind it's top 16 excluding future tour card holders, so the cutoff will be several spots lower.

There will be at least 20, top two in the OoM, Ratajski, Evetts, plus the next best 16. Could be more if players skip the event

Or don't go to Q School, assuming that's a disqualification criterion. Although I'd be surprised to see any top ~20 CT player not going.

Harris eases through 5-1 with Quinn averaging sub-60 in the end.

Koltsov and mad Barry Lynn first men through to the last 32.

Cammy v Cody watch: Menzies beats Singh Nagi 5-1, Harris with a dangerous game against Simon Preston.

Preston currently 3-2 up with a break of throw.
