As posted over at snookerbacker.com this morning, yesterday saw the draw made for the 2013 PTC Grand Finals and contrary to the entry list posted recently, defending champion Stephen Lee will not be among the 32-man field, replaced instead by Xiao Guodong, as the next player down on the APTC Order of Merit.
Click here to see the line-up here at PSB, while you can also view the order of play here. The event will again be staged in Galway, starting on 12th March 2013.
I have also amended the latest projected seedings to reflect Lee’s absence, while they will be updated throughout today as the Welsh Open qualifiers continue at the EIS.
