Published ranking points
The surviving official points table records the first three rounds only. Although archived in December 2008, it does not include Masters points or final four-round totals. The following tables therefore show standings after Round 3, rather than final championship standings.[2]
These are ranking points rather than individual match scores. Teams appear in the published order.[2]
