Ranking Event Or Not?

[reverse_side]

Does anyone know why the 2005/2006 Main Tour Rankings on the World Snooker site include non-Ranking events? These stats are for Neil Robertson btw. http://tinyurl.com/82xwx ...Tournament.................................................. .........Points
Northern Ireland Trophy	0
Grand Prix	0
Pot Black Invitational	0
Travis Perkins UK Championship	0
The Masters	0
China Open	0
Welsh Open	0
World Championship	0
2004/2005 Points	14,425
2005/2006 Points	0
2005/2006 Provisional Total	14,425

If they're not the real world rankings, what's the point? (appa-loagies for the weird formatting on this post )

I agree, it seems a bit pointless. Maybe it's just to make it clear that no points were awarded at the non-ranking tournaments, rather than omit them and make it look like they'd been forgotten about (to those who don't know that some are non-ranking). Thats assuming that those numbers will stay at 0 of course. Then again, maybe it's just to try and disguise the fact that there are fewer events this year.

Any word on sponsors for the big events yet?

By the way, I was going to reply to your post in feedback but seeing as I'm here: One word links are done with URL tags like this, you can quote this post to see the coding. I just use the 'Insert Hyperlink' button on the post page though.
