it was 18-9 and Gary Wilkinson beat Steve Davis 18-11 in 1991 then in 1992 they reduced the final to best of 17 which Wattana beat Davis 9-4 and it was then canceled.

It wasnt supposed to be a ranker, - it was meant to be a 12 man invitational event - 4 coming in at the quarter-finals

This is what someone put to me
First Round 13 Mon-Tue 6/7
Quarters 13 Wed-Thu 6/7
Semis 17 Fri-Sat 7/10
Final - 19 Sun 8/11

Which is good, but with a two table situation, I dont know whether the early rounds could have been longer? Unless, what it I think it might be was that its 1 table
