Revision as of 18:08, 5 January 2023 by JohnnyCanuck (talk | contribs)

Championship of Champions XVI is running between 2 and 20 January 2023, just before the start of Series 87. It is the first Championship of Champions to be presented by Colin Murray, and encompasses sixteen finalists from Series 79 to 86. This was also the first Championship of Champions since COC13 to invite back finalists from the latest series. The championship was scheduled a year later than usual, possibly due to Series 82 being delayed by the 2020 COVID-19 hiatus.

This is the first Championship of Champions to feature 7 series winners; all but one of these entered with an unbeaten record of 11 wins out of 11, the only exception being Dinos Sfyris, who debuted in Series 57 with 3 wins.
