Monique reported today that WST is considering the following change to the WSC seeding process this year:
The “seeds” ranked 9-16 will be drawn randomly in the draw alongside the 16 qualifiers.

I don't agree with that.
Presumably today’s date has some significance in that report

3 of the Big 6 (Ronnie, Trump, and Williams) are in the top half of the draw, and the other 3 (Selby, Robertson, and Higgins) are in the bottom half.
Symmetry!

Cheers SF, very useful.
I think you've got too many Higgins sessions though. I think the Monday 7pm one is wrong.
