Please note the following with regards to the 2013 Race to Dubai: -
- The cut-off for Category 10 in 2014 is the Top 110 from the 2013 Race to Dubai as published after the ISPS Handa Perth International*.
- The following is the status of players within the Top 145 on the 2013 Race to Dubai who have not played 13 events.
Rank Name
46 Jonas Blixt
Status: Affiliate Member – no minimum event obligation – he is taking 2014 ranked membership so he will stay in the Race to Dubai.
78 Tim Clark
Status: Affiliate Member - not taking up 2014 ranked membership so he will come out of the Race to Dubai published at the end of this week.
103 Carl Pettersson
Status: Affiliate Member - not taking up 2014 ranked membership so he will come out of the Race to Dubai published at the end of this week.
107 Dawie Van der Walt
Status: Category 10(d) – non-member winner during 2013 season, only required to play 10 events which he will do in Perth this week - (1/3 of remaining events after his win), so he will stay in the Race to Dubai.
127 Simon Thornton
Status: Category 10(d) - new winner during 2013 season, only required to play 4 events which he has already done - (1/3 of remaining events after his win), so he will stay in the Race to Dubai.
All other Ranked Members within the top 145 on the Race to Dubai who have not yet played 13 events are currently entered into sufficient events to do so by the end of the 2013 Official Season.
3. When the Race to Dubai is converted to points at the end of the ISPS Handa Perth International, whilst the cut off for the Top 110 (Category 10 for 2014) will be set*, eligible players within the top 110 will of course still have the ability to improve their Race to Dubai position (and resultant 2014 ranking) during the final series.
4. Statistics indicate (not confirm) that the last 8 places allocated to the Race to Dubai for the BMW Masters can still be secured by members competing at this week’s Perth International.
5. Should a non-member win the Perth International this week and immediately choose to take up European Tour membership, his earnings from the event will appear in the Race to Dubai published after the event. If he does not make this decision before the Race to Dubai is published this week, he will have lost this right for the remainder of this season.
* NB. Whilst no other players can move into the top 110 as a result of money won in the final series after this date, any Ranked Member in the Top 110 who thereafter fails (for whatever reason) to fulfil his minimum event regulation by the end of the 2013 Official Season, will still be removed from the Final Race to Dubai. This would result in the player ranked 111 becoming ranked 110 and gaining 2014 Membership in Category 10.
