Her majesty may choose to select combatants to add back into the final 16 should there be less than 16 combatants in the final rounds.  Double kills will be re-fought once and after which will be considered a loss for both combatants (This rule will not be enforced in the final bought).

Each combatant may only fight another combatant once best 2 out of 3 and the winner of those fights will write their name on the winner's card.  At the conclusion of the tournament the card with the most names wins.  This tournament will begin after the second round of Queen's Champion and conclude after the lunch sideboard ends at 1pm.
