With the final qualifying round of the World Championship completed, the hunt for top 32 places goes on and here we will track just who is in and who is out. Updated and corrected as of the end of the World qualifiers…
With the final stages of the China Open still to be played, the picture is not entirely clear here but hopefully this post will help a little bit! Again it is hard to say exactly where the cut-off point is between those players who are safe and those who still could do with a win to secure a top 32 place, but here is my best guess:
