What if a player wins who is suspended from DCI-sanctioned tournaments?
If a player wins that is ineligible to play in DCI®-sanctioned tournament (i.e. DCI suspended and/or a paid contractor), then the Worlds invitation and the travel and accommodation prizes will pass down to the player with the best finish who is not already invited to Worlds. The final Swiss standings will determine the difference between third and fourth place and the difference between fifth through eighth place, should that be necessary.
