Next, eight places are allocated to the top eight on the One Year Ranking List who have not already qualified for the Main Tour. Another four players came from the CBSA China Tour, and a further 14 places were available through the Q School (four Event 1 winners, four Event 2 winners, four Event 3 winners, and two from the Order of Merit).
