Upcoming event rankings are same ranking order as AF standard list (card), but the following list is only for players registered at the Open at Idlewild, in Burlington, KY.
This list was capped at 50 players of the 100 playing in the MPO division. This list seeks to capture fantasy relevant players as they are ranked headed into the Elite event.
If players from this list drop before start of event, AF will do our best to update the list, keeping to the top 50, entering the tournament.
The event ranking tries to stay simple, and easy to understand. Though with larger Elite events, it’s hard not to include more layers of information. Our Color Guide helps with understanding some of the added layering in the following lists. Also see previous ranking for Ledgestone for added coloring info.
Last updated Thursday afternoon to reflect Corey Ellis and Scott Withers dropping from the event.
