This week's BetVictor Welsh Open is the final counting event in the race to qualify for the World Grand Prix, which runs from March 4-9 in Hong Kong. 

Only the top 32 on the Johnstone's Paint One-Year Rankings at the end of the week in Llandudno will earn a place in Hong Kong. Click here for the rankings and click live to see the latest positions.  

Saturday 7pm update: Stephen Maguire is in action tonight in the semi-finals but he has already breathed a sigh of relief today as his place in Hong Kong is now secure. Luca Brecel needed to reach the final to leapfrog him into the top 32, but defeat for Brecel against Mark Selby means that the field of 32 players for the World Grand Prix is now complete. They are listed below, not necessarily in seeding order as that will be affected by the results of the final weekend in Wales.
