The remaining 16 places went to the top 12 non-qualified players from the Players Championship Order of Merit, and then to the top 4 non-qualified residents of the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland from the 2010 Players Championship Order of Merit who have competed in at least six Players Championship events.
