A few notes:

- The draw was performed as follows:

Below is the Gothenburg ranking list as of 2004-04-20. Eight people were admitted to the April TOP 8 event. The top 4 of these have been seeded. The positions of number 3-4 and 5-8 respectively have been decided by the drawing of lots with the following two conditions:
1) Each player is guaranteed not to face the same opponent in the first round twice in a row.
2) Identical semifinals in two consecutive TOP 8 events are avoided.

Challenges
Since the main tournament is open to only 8 players there are 3 qualification matches this time. This means that the three worst ranked players have the opportunity to challenge the three players immediately above them for a place in the main tournament. See the Top 8 Regulations for the rules surrounding these challenges.
