Talk:2013 Wuxi Classic

Mark Selby
Noticing that Mark Selby lost in qualifying, I wonder, is this the first time that a reigning world number 1 has lost in qualifying and not either been at the venue stage of a ranking event or been in the last 64 depsite entering and trying to be there? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 157.203.254.2 (talk) 23:22, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
 * That may be true, however without a reliable source it can't be added to the article, as that would be original research. Armbrust The Homunculus 03:16, 19 June 2013 (UTC)

Did Reanne Evans get £3000?
When the prize fund says "last 64" does this mean that those chosen for the wildcard round that lost didn't get anything - or does losing to the wildcard still count as last 64 for those purposes? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 31.221.13.140 (talk) 12:57, 24 June 2013 (UTC)
 * AFAIK the players losing in the wildcard round get the same prize money (and for professional players also ranking points) as if they would lost in the last 64 (first round proper for other tournaments). However this can't be added to the article, without a reliable source explicitly saying that. (BTW if you have a Twitter account, than you ask her personally at https://twitter.com/evans_reanne.)
