How does the Pro Tour ranking work?
The Pro Tour Order of Merit adds up the prize money won at Players Championship and European Tour events over the last 12 months. It sits alongside the world ranking, which covers two years.
- It sets the seeds for the Players Championship events.
- The top 16 not already qualified through the world ranking enter the World Matchplay and the World Grand Prix.
- The top 40 not already qualified through the world ranking earn a World Championship place.
