Qualification

The top 14 men's and women's teams on the World Curling Tour order of merit standings as of November 5, 2019 qualified for the event. The Grand Slam of Curling may fill one spot in each division as a sponsor's exemption. In the event that a team declines their invitation, the next-ranked team on the order of merit is invited until the field is complete. The sponsor's exemption was not used, and the spot was allocated to the highest-ranked remaining team on the order of merit. The teams were seeded in pools per the rankings on November 19, 2019[1]
