The main singles event had a total of 16 players, with 12 directly invited players and 4 players qualifying through the [[Tournament:Ludwig Ahgren Championship Series 5 Open Qualifier|Open Qualifier]]. There were [[Tournament#Swiss system|Swiss system]] pools and a final double-elimination bracket. Swiss pools worked the same way as {{Trn|Ludwig Smash Invitational}}, but with one pool of all 16 players instead of two pools with 16 players each. In the Swiss pools, each player played until they won 3 sets, where they qualified for the Top 8 final bracket, or until they lost 3 sets, where they were eliminated from the tournament. The 2 players that went 3-0 in sets in Swiss pools were able to draft pick their Winners' Quarters opponent out of the 3 players that went 3-2 in sets. The Top 8 played in the final bracket in a double-elimination format, with everyone starting Winners' side. All sets at the event were best of 5, in both Open Qualifier and main singles.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230705215505/https://twitter.com/aidencalvin/status/1676703146461249536|title=everything is BO5}}</ref> Swiss pools Rounds 1-3 were played on July 8th, and Rounds 4-5 were played on July 9th.

**Swift also became the first player to make Top 8 using a Prism-style controller. The controller's obelisk-shaped design prompted jokes from commentary and social media about Swift making various sacrifices in order to win his sets. | |||
