If the new system came in it would mean Shaun Murphy would have to qualify for the WC

I am assuming though if you finish in the top 16 this year you don't have to qualify for the first ranking event next season?

yes thatd be correct. Its hard to say how they will implement the new rankings quickly and fairly, bound to be a slight transitional phase

it will be a lot of pressure on the players, this time around they had 14 ranking events to sort out their ranking. Next season it will be down to 7.
So do I have it right, say Ronnie loses in round 1 of the SM's he will obviously not be in the top 16 for the World Open...would he have to qualify?

Being the WN1 as we know it now will change nobody will have a hope of beating hendrys record haul however i think it will give tournaments more value as it stands you know you at the crucible with the rolling rankings you better keep up form or you wont be there.
