Has the format for this changed? I thought this has stayed in the old format, but it doesn't look like the Australian open or the worlds, with more players in round 2, so players like Lisowski or Gilbert have to play an extra game than usual?

Exactly same format as Australia Open Qualifying
they cant stay in the old old format of block 16 because that would mean players ranked 113 to 128 would have to play 6 matches just to reach the last 32 at least this way nobody plays more than 4 qualifying matches similar to last season.

Oh ok, I see it now, just looked different for some reason! Looks a lot harder for some good players to reach the venue stages.
