The field of participants consists of a total of 42 players. Seven groups of six players each have been created. They first play against each other in pool format. The top two from each group and the top two numbers three then advance to the knockout stage. The remaining sixteen names then continue to compete for the title.
By now, 29 of the 42 participants have been announced. There are still eleven spots to be divided via a local ranking. Furthermore, there is still a qualification tournament to be played and the organization has a wildcard in its pocket.
Ross Smith, as the world number 11, is on paper the biggest name in the field of participants. He has entered Group 1 and will play against Damian Mol, among others. Jermaine Wattimena, Owen Roelofs and Willem Mandigers are in Group 2, while Gian van Veen and Wessel Nijman are the two big names in Group 3.
Group 4 includes such familiar names as Jules van Dongen, Jerry Hendriks and Jeffrey Sparidaans. Group 5 includes Max Hopp and Wesley Plaisier, while defending champion Ian White is in Group 6. Two-time Lakeside champion Scott Waites is the big name in Group 7.
