In the event of the 1st player being unable to attend then the place will be given to the 2nd player. If that 2nd player has qualified in their own right or is unable to take up the position, then no-one will replace the missing player and the position will be taken up by an extra qualifier from the Saturday Main Qualifer tournament. Any player being 1st more than once will be given one bye in the Main Finals and any subsequent positions taken up by a Saturday qualifier.
