Top four qualified for the play–offs. If points were level then most frames won determined their positions. If two players had an identical record then the result in their match determined their positions. If that ended 3–3 then the player who got to four first was higher.[1] (Breaks above 50 shown between (parentheses); century breaks are indicated with bold.)[2][3]
