It's been an entertaining eight days of croquet at the 2016 WCF World Championship in West Palm Beach, Florida. As we prepare for a few remaining block finishes and the tiebreaker, we'll note that Mark Avery (9-0) (ENG) and Simon Jenkins (6-3) (USA) have made it all the way from the qualifier to the knockout. Also from the qualifier, Ted Salter (5-4) (AUS) could make the tiebreaker playoff, if Chris Patmore can defeat Ian Lines in the last remaining game for Block F.
Overall, England currently leads the charge with 11 players qualified for the knockout. Potentially, two more players could make it in depending on the day's results. The US follows with seven players and could gain another if Jim Bast wins his playoff with Kevin Beard (AUS). Australia has three players in and could add could add three more. Wales has three in. New Zealand has two players in and could add one more. South Africa and Scotland each have one player in the knockout.
