The Tour Championship runs from March 22 to 28 and features the top eight players from the one-year ranking list.
WHO HAS QUALIFIED?
The event features eight participants and is made up of the highest ranked players from the one-year ranking list after the completion of the WST Pro Series event, which finished on Sunday.
The eight places are already assured with Barry Hawkins securing the final spot.
Hawkins had the final place in the field for the event at the Celtic Manor Resort in his grasp, but had he slipped up on Friday it would have opened the door for Zhou Yuelong.
Hawkins did not progress to the final group of the Pro Series, as Sam Craigie and Jack Lisowski took the qualifying spots, but in finishing third he closed the door on Zhou’s hopes.
