You mean next years WBC?


Well, it's every 3 years (or 4, not very consistent right now... as they've had it in 2006, 2009, and now 2013). But yeah... the next WBC. The loser has to go through a qualifier, whereas the winner is still eliminated from this tournament, but has an automatic berth in the next WBC.
