That is not my understanding, I think he needs to finish in the top 110 (all but guaranteed now) to retain his place in Category 18.    A top 100 place will though give him Cat 10 next season,  in which case he would be able to pick and choose his events more than he has been able to this season.  

Yes you are correct I think. I reckon they must have changed the categories for next season as at present 18 is for players who got their card at the qualifying school, it may be something to do with only top 100 now going into category 10 rather than 110 as per last season.

 

Although Cat.18 will get him in quite a few tournaments, it gives him little chance of the real big events like Dubai desert classic, Scottish Open, Wentworth. So let's hope he can seal his spot in the 100 this week.

 

One interesting thing, in the above video interview he said that if he missed the top 100 then he would be back to Q school. I wonder if qualifiers will get a better category than 101 -110
