In Miss Earth history, all Best in Swimsuit awardees (except in 2003) managed to secure a slot in the semis.
In fact, most of them ended up in the Top 4 and one was proclaimed Miss Earth (in 2005).
But in case of Seifert, the highest placement she could get this year is probably 1st Runner Up, because the reigning Miss Earth is from the Philippines, not unless the organizers would want to duplicate the move made by Miss Universe earlier, for having a back-to-back winner from Venezuela.
On Mykiru's list of favorites, Miss Philippines is currently the top favorite to win this year.
