James Wade has fallen out of the top ten for the first time since July 2007 with indifferent form and players around him getting better and better being the main reason for the drop.
As well as the Aldershot ace dropping out,
Robert Thornton has also dropped out of the top 16. The Thorn has not been the same player since before his Premier League run and this has been expected.
Andy Hamilton's fall is continuing with the Hammer looking increasingly likely that he will be at Q-School for the first time in January with
Wes Newton who has dropped out of the top 64. Like most years, only a run in a big TV major or getting into the World Championship would give the two former big names a reprieve from Q-School.
Also in terms of rises up the rankings,
Rob Cross despite only just joining the tour this year is edging closer to the top 32 and
Simon Whitlock is the man to benefit from Thornton's demise picking up his top 16 place once again.
