* Please note that the rankings are sometimes shown as equal to other pairs/teams; this is because the Master point allocation is the same for a range of placings. Also in some WBF Zonals there are Zonal winners as well as the top players; these Zonal winners are allocated a small number of master points but their ranking is shown as either 0 or 'Zone-Winner'.
