PTC finals seeding

Apparently seeding for the PTC finals is dependent upon total points across both the European and Asian Orders of Merit.

May make it worthwhile for already-qualified players to pick up money in the final Asian competition and grab a Top 16 place. It's £10000 for a win, £5000 for runner-up, £2500 for semi finalists, £1500 for quarter finalists, £1000 for Last 16.

I've had a quick look at this, I think the current standings are :

1 Mark Allen 45250
2 Mark Selby 42716
3 Ronnie O'Sullivan 38616
4 Mark J Williams 30683
5 Shaun Murphy 29499
6 John Higgins 27550
7 Ricky Walden 5100
8 Judd Trump 20249
9 Dīng Jùnhuī 19933
10 Fergal O'Brien 17199
11 Sam Baird 16351
12 Joe Perry 15682
13 Liáng Wénbó 15483
14 Marco Fu 15300
15 Stephen Maguire 14766
16 Neil Robertson 14083
17 Gerard Greene 13383
18 Jamie Jones 13300
19 Stuart Bingham 12983
20 David Gilbert 12883
21 Ben Woollaston 12316
22 Gary Wilson 11732
23 Ryan Day 11550
24 Michael Holt 11215
25 Jū Rètí 11200
26 Scott Donaldson 10799
27 Jimmy Robertson 10716
28 Mark Davis 10450
29 Anthony Hamilton 10234
30 Xiāo Guódòng 5283
31 Lǚ Hàotiān 5000
32 Liú Chuǎng 4600

Players shown in red are those who haven't got enough points on the Asian Order of Merit to be certain to qualify for the PTC finals, so up to 5 different players might be added to this list - but players not on this list wouldn't put themselves into the top 16 without a run to the final.
