Thanks for the updates MrNumbers. I played Lim in the 3rd/4th playoff in 2015 and he beat me. Glad he's taken it so seriously!

Merlin will be pleased to see Poland in the final. A very tough opponent for him though!

I've just noticed that the final rankings and the results of the knockout stages at previous world championships are available here:

It's interesting that the result of the 2014 final is missing. But if you'd like to know what happened there, watch this video:

Not surprisingly: this year's Carcassonne world championships has been cancelled (COVID-19, of course). :(
But in 2021 the participating countries may send two players to the championship, so qualification might be slightly easier next year.
