The BEN Pro Ranking System is used to determine the points earned by the participants of
each tournament.
The table shown below documents the number of points earned for finishes in the Men’s Singles 501 at tournaments included on the list of the selected tournaments to determine the 3 American Wild Cards for the LVDC IV. The top 3 American men earning the most BEN Pro Ranking Points as allocated from the table below and accumulated from all of the selected tournaments listed above will be awarded a place in the final 32 players to compete on stage in Las Vegas in 2006. Ties will be broken by the most recent record of points earned by those players who are tied. The American men earning Wild Cards must be citizens of the US or residents of the US holding valid green cards.
