Writer: scotty slottyscotty slotty


The top-16 in snooker descend on the Aldersley in Wolverhampton on Monday for the Players Championship.

The field is made up of the top-16 in the world on the one-year rankings, meaning those who have won events or been in excellent form, or both, are in action.



Zhao Xintong has had a breakout season, adding to his UK Championship win with victory in the German Masters, and he is the No. 1 seed.

WHAT IS THE PLAYERS CHAMPIONSHIP SCHEDULE?

  • February 7, 8 and 9 - Round One

  • February 9, 10 and 11 - Quarter-finals

  • February 11 and 12 - Semi-finals

  • February 13 - Final



WHAT IS THE PLAYERS CHAMPIONSHIP FORMAT?

It is the tried-and-trusted format of best of 11 frames all the way to the semi-finals. The final is played over two sessions and is a best-of-19 affair.


The Players Championship has been on the schedule since 2011, when Shaun Murphy beat Martin Gould. It became a ranking event in 2017.
