Just like in previous years, for 2022, Monotype players will be able to compete for a prize ribbon that shows who is the best individual tournament player of the year! To reach this goal, players will have to participate in a series of tournaments displaying different skills, performing their best to earn as many circuit points as possible. At the end of the year, there will be a playoffs featuring the 16 players with the most circuit points. The winner of the playoffs will be crowned the 2022 Monotype Circuit Champion and receive this ribbon and will remain colored until another player becomes the circuit champion in a future year:
