According to Darts, Fritz will be the top seed & Jake is the only Brit in the main draw by right (assuming he's fit - Leon Smith reckons that he's no injured).  As things stand, Billy, Jay & JoMo will be in qualies, while Cam could pick up one of the three main draw wild cards.

On the doubles front, Henry & Harri, Joe & Neal & Julian & Lloyd are in line to be seeded first, second & third respectively.  Jamie, back with Rajeev, is in the chasing pack, while Luke & Sander appear to have withdrawn ( cry ).  There are also two WCs, so there'll probably be a separate thread.

I know his form's been ropey lately, but maybe a little harsh not to give Billy a MDWC given he has semifinal points coming off from last year.

Guessing MDWCs have gone to Cam, Dan and JPJ

 I agree although doing it this way means we ended up with one more player in qualifying

Jay was having such success on the clay for a few months, wonder whether it's taking him longer to adjust to the grass because of that. Also a big step up from playing Italian futures against guys in the 300-900 ranking range, and then suddenly thrown up against top 100 players
