so germany had 58 entrants and only one got through, UK had 21 and also only one through. filler vs shaw will play next
not counting canada, austria probably had the strongest showing with 28% through, spain also strong with 20% and neither of them are alcaide or FSR

Be interesting to see if, Filler's wife starts knocking on the DOMINANT Fishers' doorway in the next couple yrs? 
The timing in life for this change is possible.
Be different, having husband/wife be the best in the World in the same discipline.
Wonder how many other couples on the planet have this sameness.

I wasn’t expecting to feel this way. I think this break rule is not only better but also using the template all the way to the finals would seem better than hand racking. Maybe I’ll feel different if someone comes along with a break perfected to a repeatable easy layout, but until then I’d be willing to see hand racking leave if this break style continues to require skill to make the 1 and luck to have a good layout/cueball position.
