Gerwyn Price moves ahead of Gary Anderson for provisional #4 at the World Championships, as Ricky Evans moves into the seeds. This knocks Jamie Lewis out of the World Championships and Mickey Mansell in via the ProTour Order of Merit. Minimum money added for Grand Slam & Players.

Three events to come next weekend, the penultimate weekend of international qualifiers, from New Zealand (come on Puha/Robb/Irwin, save us), South/Central America (anyone other than Diogo home?) and South/East Europe (plenty of middling jobbers who can do the business here)

How come Teehan's spot is provisional

How come Teehan's spot is provisional

He's actually not 100% in, if two players (such as Schindler who's at both the Grand Slam and the Players, or Lewis who may just need a 3rd place in a Grand Slam group) force their way into the top 32, then Meikle is forced out of the ProTour spots and has to settle for a Development Tour spot, knocking Teehan out. It's only a matter of time for Teehan though

Shoot me down buyt Teenan didnt impress me at the World masters

[thegentle]

There's an absolute maximum of 4 players who can force their way into the top 32, Lewis if he wins a game or two at the Grand Slam, Schindler if he goes on a long run at both Wolverhampton and Minehead, and two outsiders within touching distance winning on TV. Lennon's place will be rubber stamped if Lewis doesn't qualify for Wolverhampton today, but realistically everyone apart from Mansell (who'd be knocked out by Lewis doing well enough at the Grand Slam) can sleep well

Very inexperienced mind you, has almost no senior experience to speak of unlike some players on the Development Tour

3 Warren Parry
4 Darren Herewini
5 Craig Caldwell
6 John Hurring
7 Tahuna Irwin (Youth)
8 Steve Gooch
9 Jonathan Silcock
10 Jack Sheppard (Junior)
11 Robert Szabo
12 Mark Cleaver
13 Max Dallimore
14 Warren French
15 Tukina Weko
16 Terry Jowett
17 Mark McGrath
18 A J Te Kira
19 Jason Ladbrook
20 Paul Harper
21 Shane Battock
22 Bernie Smith
23 Jim Poole

27 Mark Pepper
28 Alex Wade
29 Chas Forster
30 Stuart Irwin
31 Cairns Mason
32 Jacob Renata

I'd like to see Ben Robb get through. The first time I saw him I thought he was a total cock but he seemed okay when interviewed. Has something about him at least.

[JH01]

What was the name of the bloke from NZ who played at Ally Pally last year? Don't recognise any of those seeds as being him.
