The Players' Meeting and Championship draw will be conducted from 6pm at the New York Athletic Club (NYAC), during the cocktail party hosted by the NYAC on the evening prior to the commencement of the Championship.
The Championship will be played using an initial Group phase, with each group containing one seeded player based on performances in the previous three Championships, with all other players drawn at random.
