2nd Aussie?
What about Ben Judge - he's still got another year - or has he pulled out completely?

The Q School season is nearly upon us. Good luck to all participants. 12 places up for grabs, bound to be a few surprises and unknowns become knowns along the way.
I think this year more than last it is imperative for the amateurs hoping to start a career to get on tour this time because my gut feeling is there won't be the opportunities for amateurs in the PTC events next season as there were last season. I can't see too many main tour players being happy with having to play pre-quals to get to the last 128 draw. I don't know how it will work but my guess is that main tour players will be seeded through to the last 128 with amateurs playing off for any gaps left by non-starters. As there are 133 on tour this means more than 5 non-starters before vacancies emerge. I don't know exactly if this is the case but until I know otherwise I can only assume it is the case.

Doesn't that kind of defeat the object of PTCs to be pro-Am competitions if Amateurs can't play in them?

Well they're not strictly pro-am that's just how they were for the last 2 seasons before they had enough pros to fill out the draws.
Anyway, I've just had it confirmed from Matt that indeed if 128 players out of 133 enter a PTC then there is no room for amateurs. If 127 enter then all the amateurs who enter will play for that one vacant place.
