Alfie posted on his Facebook page that he had tested positive to covid-19 and that he was truly gutted to miss the first event of the season. Get well soon Alfie.

No reason was given for Lu Ning withdrawal but it’s likely either caused by travel restrictions/problems, or the result a decision to stay in China a bit longer after everything that happened last season and being away from home for so long.

It all starts tomorrow with “Willo” the highest ranked player in action.
