Provisional Seedings

Provisional seedings (for the UK Championship, the Shoot Out and the German Masters), including guaranteed points for current and upcoming events. In every tournament the defending champion is the #1 seed, the world champion is the #2 seed and the rest will be seeded according to the list below.

Top 64 at season-end is secured a spot on next season's Tour. The top 4 in the season list (yellow) not already qualified will also earn cards. Those in green are safe with two-year cards. Red numbers means the player is still in the event. We have also stored the older lists.
