The Big, (Big) Draw

edit

If you look at this draw you can see that there are seven matches which are counted as the first round; the draw then switches back to a conventional 128 player format. I'm not sure how we can render this properly - as it stands, it looks as though the sections would have to be split again to fit the extra matches in. When I first noticed this I edited it in as a preliminary round, but I can't verify that and it's not strictly accurate. Any ideas? Totalinarian (talk) 21:33, 21 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

Preliminary round

edit

Related to the above and per this discussion, I've added in the preliminary round to the two sections needing it. A version with the preliminary round in every section (most empty) is here.
P#, e.g. P1, will be used in players' timelines/infoboxes where necessary to represent the preliminary round, see also Template talk:Performance key#Preliminary rounds. Somnifuguist (talk) 00:04, 20 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
