There has been one Swedish qualifying tournament for WESPAC 2023 in Las Vegas. The Swedish participant is Mårten Björkman.
Participants in tournaments with at least six Swedish players get WESPAC qualifying points according to their standings. The last placed player gets 1 point, the last but one 2 points and so on. The three best participants also get bonus qualifying points: the best one 8, the second best 4, and the third best 2 points. These bonus points are doubled, however, in the Swedish National Championship in English Scrabble, which is arranged every odd year. Detailed rules for qualification are found here.
