:Hi Alan, 9 is the seed Kyren Wilson was originally given, hence his position in the bracket. Mark Williams withdrew, meaning seed position 8 was taken by his replacement, Iulian Boiko. Usually a withdrawal before the tournament would be accounted for in the seedings, but this one was clearly too late for that, hence Boiko's appearance in a seeded berth. This withdrawal doesn't mean everyone else moves up one as was displayed before my edits, so I have reverted to the original seedings, which is the correct way, so 1 plays 32, 16 plays 17 etc in the last 32. Hope that helps. [[User:Catb2006|Catb2006]] ([[User talk:Catb2006|talk]]) 11:46, 23 January 2024 (UTC) |

@Catb2006: What is going on with the seed numbers? You seem to have changed many of them. For instance, Kyren Wilson now has (9) in the bracket and (8) in the qualifiers, and snooker.org has him at [8]. Explain. Alan (talk) 11:01, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
