The Reykjavik Open had to be cancelled in 2020 while in 2021 the plan is for the main event of the Festival to serve as the European Championship, potentially boosting the prestige of a tournament that has largely been viewed as a qualifier for the World Cup.
The event has already been postponed once because of the virus situation. If it can’t be held at these dates the ECU say it may be postponed again to August/September, with players qualifying for the 2023 World Cup instead.
