Program:

  • Horseshoe toss – the winner of each pool advances to win-or-lose matches. Here we will probably make an overview which will look like the following:
  • The 8 best pool winners - bet on points score smoke in the quarter-finals. That means there is a pool winner who does not progress to the quarter-finals.
  • The quarter-finals are played immediately after the last pool match. This means starting from 14.40
  • Pool Winner pool 1a – pool winner 1b  the winner smokes in semi-final 1
  • Pool winner 1c - pool winner 1d  - the winner smokes in semi-final 2
  • Pool winner 1e – pool winner 1f  - the winner smokes in semi-final 1
  • Pool winner 1g – pool winner 1h - The winner smokes in semi-final 2
  • All quarter-finals are played at the same time on lane 1, 2, 3 and 4
  • Semi-final will be played on courts 1 and 2 at 15.10
  • The final will be played on court 1 at 15.40 and is the winner of the two semi-finals.
