The 128 participating players first played the qualifying round from October 30 to November 2, so the 64 players who advanced to the main round from the qualifying round began to compete for the first round of the main competition today, from the first round of the main round (round of 64) to the third round of the main round (round of 16), all of which adopted the best-of-7 system, the 1/4 finals (round of 8) for 9 rounds and 5 wins, the semifinals (top 4) for 11 rounds and 6 wins, and the final final for 17 rounds and 9 wins.
Note: Because the World Top 16 Qualifiers are postponed during the main event, only the winner will advance to the first round of the main event, so this round is called the "postponed qualifier" and cannot be marked as the main round to avoid confusion about the schedule).
