^{He replaces Scotland's Paul Foster, who was beaten by Harlow at the semi-final stage in Wales, with the winner of that event, Scotland's David Gourlay, moving up from eighth to third at the expense of his fellow countryman Darren Burnett.}

^{England's new world indoor singles champion Andy Thomson has jumped five places from tenth to fifth, with England's Robert Paxton, unseeded winner of the Co-operative Funeralcare Scottish International Open, is the one new face in the top 16 at tenth, with former world champion Billy Jackson, from England, making way for him.}

^{After winning two matches in the three ranking tournaments this season, record five-time world champion Alex Marshall MBE (Scotland) now finds himself down at number 13 from seven, although with a 28 point cushion between England's Nicky Brett in 16th place and Jackson at 17th, the immediate threat to his position in the top 16, and that of Welsh pair Jason Greenslade and Robert Weale in 14th and 15th, is not quite as acute as in recent years.}

^{Outside the top 16, the biggest move has come from Scotland's Wayne Hogg, whose quarter-final places at the Fred.Olsen Cruise Lines World indoor singles and the Co-operative Funeralcare Welsh Grand Prix, has jettisoned him from 93rd to 20th, although still some 39 points away from the top 16.}

^{The leading overseas player at 22nd is South Africa's Craig Rimmington, who upset the odds at the Fred.Olsen Cruise Lines World indoor singles with an opening round defeat of Alex Marshall.}
