yeah same. and he's obviously defending nothing at the PC finals or worlds so he's likely to get higher.

Still weird that we don’t know how many players are gonna go through the PDPA qualifier

Could have someone qualify as the 9th qualifier who’s ranked 100th and a couple of wins at worlds could salvage their card out of nothing

It's a fucking mess. Unless Thornton saves his card this way which would be totally valid and deserved as an all time great of the game.
The truth, however ugly in itself, is always curious and beautiful to seekers after it.

100% expect there to be 9 PDPA places and qualifier finalist losers to be put in OOM order for a reserve list in case of withdrawals. Justin Shite will undoubtedly make it

Exactly which qualifiers haven't taken place? Irish, South American and a few Europeans right? That many places in the PDPA qualifier would be a fucking farce, but sadly it's likely at this point.

India, South/Central America, Ireland, Iberia, Benelux, and Central Europe (ie Austria et al). Looks like there'll be 8 PDPA qualifiers, like for 2008 and 2009 (back when there were only 8 ProTour qualifiers)

He showed potential for a while and then looked like he didn't give a shit.
He is now just another jobber

kando and possibly reyes..
kando has apparently said he will come back if still in top 64, but I am not so sure, and reyes seems to not be bothered at all.
and don't forget Crusty, :D who said he feels like jacking it all it, or was it jacking off :lol:

Thought Reyes would kick on after that game against MvG a few years ago, but it never happened for him. God knows why he hasn't been playing, I guess travel restrictions is the most likely answer, so in theory I reckon he'll probably be available to come back next year, though whether he'll want to with so much ground to make up, and such little competition this year, is anyone's guess

Also realised that there are no Spanish representatives at the Worlds for the first time since 2008, Jose is really showing them all up!

Ward will resign his TC. Maybe someone else will too (Anderson??)
We got rid of Schindler, Dekker, Van de Pas, Thornton and freaking North :pointing:

Needless to say, a ginormous win for Edgar, whose tour card is now a good 90% safe I'd say. Kuivenhoven could have done without it, obviously he's far from safe, if Hunt and Kleermaker win their first round games (which they'd probably both be favourites for given they'll be up against a non-ProTour qualifier), Maik would need to win his first round game or else he's relying on snookers
