** In events with a buy back option, players who buy back will be deemed to have been eliminated from the event and will not be eligible for ranking points.

**Where there are seeded players who enter the competition beyond the first round, they will not be eligible for any points should they be eliminated in their opening match. If they do progress they will only be eligible for 50% of the allocated points.

Further events will be added in due course as well as the points system.
