Will Nolan is the one British direct entrant here, and has to tackle the JWR37. 13 year old Hephzibah Oluwadare made her first attempt to qualify for a high grade event, but lost to an Estonian who went on to qualify comfortably. Kristina Paskauskas reached final qualifying.
A tough match next for Will against the JWR 19, whose last two tournaments were a Grade 1 final and semi-final, comfortably accounting for Derrick Chen and Jack Pinnington Jones
