Snooker

Kyren Wilson crashes out of Championship League Snooker.​

Kyren Wilson went unbeaten in his first outing as world champion but still failed to emerge from Group 1 of Championship League Snooker on Thursday.
The Englishman beat Jak Jones to claim a maiden world title last month at the Crucible Theatre in Sheffield.


In his opening match of the new campaign, Wilson could only manage a 2-2 draw with amateur top-up Daniel Womersley.


Things looked more promising after he secured a 3-0 victory over Baipat Siripaporn, but he needed to beat Scott Donaldson in his remaining round-robin fixture to progress.
The latter had recorded back-to-back 3-0 triumphs against the same opponents and required only a draw from his third match.
When Wilson went in front with a break of 79, it looked like the turnaround could be on the cards.
But Donaldson subsequently made contributions of 88 and 101 to guarantee the point he needed to move into the last 32.
Wilson ended the day with a break of 111, but it was only good enough for second place in the group behind Donaldson, prematurely ending his Championship League Snooker run.


It was much more convincing in Group 14, where Hossein Vafaei dominated proceedings by winning all three of his encounters.
The Iranian surrendered just a single frame across the day as he outplayed Josh Mulholland, Manasawin Phetmalaikul, and Louis Heathcote.
Vafaei’s odds in the outright betting market for the Championship League Snooker winner have been slashed to about 14/1 with most online bookies.
There are many ways to bet on snooker and other sports, with several online bookmakers providing acca bonus offers or boosted odds options after signing up.
On Friday, meanwhile, the action at the Mattioli Arena in Leicester continues with two more groups from Stage One in what is the 2024/25 snooker season’s first ranking event.
China’s Si Jiahui is in Group 13 alongside Jimmy Robertson, Zak Surety, and Peter Lines.
In Group 18, former world champion Stuart Bingham faces Anthony Hamilton, Ahmed Aly Elsayed, and Hamim Hussain. ;)

​

 

Group wins for Alexander Ursenbacher and David Lilley.​

Alexander Ursenbacher and David Lilley were the latest players to emerge from Stage One of Championship League Snooker in Leicester.
Two more groups took place on Wednesday at the Mattioli Arena with the players competing in the 2024/25 snooker season’s opening ranking event.


An extremely tight Group 26 saw five out of the six round-robin fixtures drawn with 2-2 scorelines.


The only player to break the trend was Ursenbacher, the Swiss beating neighbour Florian Nuessle of Austria 3-0 in his last outing to progress.
Ursenbacher has had a disappointing few seasons but is still only 28, and he will be buoyed by topping a group that also included former ranking event winners Graeme Dott and Matthew Selt.
Proceedings were much more straightforward in Group 27, with Lilley dominating the day by winning all three of his games.
The Englishman got off to the perfect start with a resounding 3-0 victory against Liam Graham and followed it up with a second whitewash success against Paul Deaville.
Final opponent Yuan Sijun had the opportunity to leapfrog his way into first but needed to beat Lilley in the remaining round-robin affair.

But despite losing the first frame against the Chinese competitor, Lilley took the following three to safely progress.
On Thursday, eight more players will vie for a spot in the last 32 and Stage Two of the competition later this month.
Among them is Kyren Wilson, the sport’s newest world champion who is set to make his first appearance of the campaign.
Wilson will face Scott Donaldson, Baipat Siripaporn, and Daniel Womersley in Group 1.
In Group 14, meanwhile, Hossein Vafaei will be challenged by Louis Heathcote, Manasawin Phetmalaikul, and Josh Mulholland.

Wednesday, June 19th – Results​

Group 26
1. Matthew Selt 2-2 Florian Nuessle
2. Graeme Dott 2-2 Alexander Ursenbacher
3. Graeme Dott 2-2 Florian Nuessle
4. Matthew Selt 2-2 Alexander Ursenbacher
5. Alexander Ursenbacher 3-0 Florian Nuessle
6. Matthew Selt 2-2 Graeme Dott

Group 27
1. Yuan Sijun 3-0 Paul Deaville
2. David Lilley 3-0 Liam Graham
3. David Lilley 3-0 Paul Deaville
4. Yuan Sijun 2-2 Liam Graham

6. David Lilley 3-1 Yuan Sijun ;)

Well Delboy99 Delboy99 the event trundles along and now 24 players in the last 32, 4 days this week see the First Round complete.

After sorting out the entrants there are currently 7 of the Top 16 that have not taken part, suppose the excitement of the week is whether O'Sullivan can be bothered to turn up for a day this week?? Plus Ford who withdrew ill after 1 game so a weak event. 5 of the next 19 haven't bothered entering or turning up, mostly Asian players on holiday or in the case of Cao Yupeng, retired or quit to play pool in China?

So these are the 24 quallfiers and the groups they are in for Round 2 with current Official rankings and my ratings.

1719128508345.png

The winner of the event receives £33,000 a very low amount compared to the other events, but then only 3 days work to earn it. A chance for the lower ranked players pluss all the spin offs they will receive from invitation events.
 

Matthew Stevens wins Championship League Snooker group.​

Matthew Stevens moved into Stage Two of Championship League Snooker by topping Group 25 on Wednesday in Leicester.





The Welshman compiled a break of 66 to wrap up a 3-0 victory over Haydon Pinhey in his initial round-robin affair, the latter playing in his first match as a professional player.
Stevens subsequently looked set to maintain his 100% record but missed a tricky final black against Farakh Ajaib, with the Pakistan player duly sinking it to draw the game 2-2.
That left both Stevens and Ajaib on four points each at the top of the group heading into the third and last round of fixtures.


Ajaib’s challenge quickly faded, however, with a 3-0 reverse against Pinhey, leaving the door ajar for Stevens to power through.


The former UK and Masters champion needed only a point to prevail but took all three, beating the higher seed Robbie Williams 3-1 with contributions of 97, 91, and 59.


Ashley Carty, meanwhile, became the first competitor of the week to go undefeated while holding a perfect record of three wins from three outings.


The Englishman lost only a single frame as he dominated Group 31 at the Mattioli Arena. ;)
 

Si Jiahui gets his season off to a winning start.​

Si Jiahui won all three of his round-robin fixtures to prevail in Group 13 of Championship League Snooker on Friday in Leicester.
Si followed that up with a 3-0 defeat of Zak Surety where he compiled breaks of 82 and 74.


That already guaranteed his spot in Stage Two of the season’s opening ranking event, but he overcame Jimmy Robertson in his remaining encounter for good measure as well.
Si, a World Championship semi-finalist in 2023, has risen into the top 20 in the world rankings and will have aspirations of pushing for a place among the top 16 this term.

In Group 18, Stuart Bingham topped proceedings thanks to a record of two wins and a draw from his three games.


The 2015 world champion squandered a 2-0 advantage in his initial match against Hamim Hussain.


But a 3-0 victory against struggling American Ahmed Aly Elsayed set Bingham up to progress from the group.
A winner-took-all tie with Anthony Hamilton followed, the latter having also accumulated four points from his two affairs against the same opponents.
Bingham duly secured a 3-1 victory over his fellow Englishman to safeguard his place in the last 32.


Championship League Snooker continues on Saturday with two more groups in what has been a very long process to complete Stage One.


Pang Junxu is in Group 20 with the young Chinese competitor set to face Stuart Carrington, Gong Chenzhi, and Gerard Greene.


Group 19 has been affected by withdrawals with Noppon Saengkham pulling out, meaning there are two top-up amateurs involved.


Jamie O’Neill and Alfie Davies join Long Zehuang and Lei Peifan in a quartet that offers a big opportunity for one of them to move to the latter stages of a ranking event. ;)

John Higgins exits Championship League Snooker.​

John Higgins could only manage third place in Group 9 and was duly dumped out of Championship League Snooker on Monday in Leicester.
The esteemed Scot has won the invitational version of Championship League Snooker four times but will play no further part in this ranking event edition.


Higgins got his 2024/25 snooker season off to a strong start by beating Latvian rookie Artemijs Zizins 3-0 at the Mattioli Arena.


However, a 3-0 defeat to Ben Mertens subsequently put the 49 year-old in a spot of bother that he was ultimately unable to recover from.
Ahead of the third and final round of fixtures, Higgins needed to beat his final opponent Ma Hailong to have a chance of progressing.


But Ma, buoyed by a superb 111 in the opening frame, took a tight third frame to secure what proved to be a vital point.


With Mertens losing to Zizins, a 2-2 draw for the young Chinese competitor safeguarded his place in Stage Two of the competition.
It was close in Group 6 as well, with Gary Wilson going undefeated throughout the day’s play and holding off a stern challenge from fellow Englishman Joe Perry.
Wilson established control of the round-robin phase when he orchestrated a brace of early triumphs over Huang Jianbo and Michael Holt.


Yet Perry managed to accumulate four points against the same opponents, leaving an interesting crunch tie against Wilson to round off the day.


It looked promising for Perry when he won the opening frame with a break of 71, but Wilson responded with the next two to get the single point he needed to advance.


Ronnie O’Sullivan is expected to make his first appearance of the new campaign on Tuesday, meanwhile.


The Rocket is in Group 2 alongside He Guoqiang, Mitchell Mann, and amateur top-up Kayden Brierley.


In Group 12, Jack Lisowski entertains Mark Davis, Jiang Jun, and Anton Kazakov. ;)
 
Former World Champion Ken Doherty has been awarded an Invitational Tour Card which will allow him to compete on the World Snooker Tour for the next two seasons.

Stephen Hendry was also offered an Invitational Tour Card but has decided not to accept. The seven-time World Champion had held the card since 2020, but now feels that he is unable to commit to the tour due to other priorities including the growth of his CueTips YouTube Channel and brand, broadcast commitments and ambassadorial role in China.

Hendry offered another card! Sometimes you just wonder if the organisers have any clue what is going on? He has hardly used his card for the last 2 seasons and clearly isn't bothered. They also give 4 cards to women so they can organise a meaningless event for a little TV money. They now are still a player short, perhaps invite the top ranked player from Qualifying School or World Amateur Championship best players, cut the Women down to 2 maximum unless they qualify in a fully diverse event. With those players not turning up, Cao?, sure to be Americans, Asians, Africans who lose interest.

Great start from Higgins but couldn't keep it going.

O'Sullivan turned up today and still a chance of qualifying for the 2nd stage.
 
O'Sullivan lost his way after the long break and couldn't match rising Chinese player, He Guoqiang, Lisowski has his big chance to win an event and ends up in what looks the toughest Group in Stage 2. Two more days to go.

Stephen Hendry announces snooker retirement after snubbing World Tour offer.​

Stephen Hendry has retired for a second time after struggling to rediscover his best form.​

Snooker legend Stephen Hendry has decided now is the time to finally hang up his cue. The seven-time world champion has turned down a two-year invitational wildcard to compete on the World Snooker Tour.

The King of the Crucible officially retired in 2012 despite pocketing a memorable maximum 147 break at the World Championship.
He made a shock announcement when he came out of retirement nine years later.
However, golden oldie Hendry has struggled to rediscover his brilliant best form on the baize – and at 55 has called it a day.
“Let’s me honest, I wasn’t pulling up any trees was I?” joked Hendry. “I was a little bit surprised with how good the standard was, but I’ve just got so many other work commitments I won’t be able to dedicate enough time to practising.

“I know the game inside out, I still know all the shots, but unfortunately the body is not performing like my brain wants it to.
“I wasn’t putting in the effort the last couple of season and, with all my TV commitments and my YouTube channel, it’s just not feasible to do myself justice.”

Hendry recently spent a month working in China, where he does a lot of ambassadorial work and revealed: “I’m going to be in China for four or five months a year, plus I’ve got all my TV work and everything else.

“And the other thing is that if you’re not playing regularly on these (qualifying) tables you’re going to struggle.”
Long-term rival Jimmy White is still playing on the professional tour aged 62, while former world champion Ken Doherty, 54 – one of Hendry’s good mates – has just accepted a two-year wildcard to continue his professional career.
“I totally admire Ken and Jimmy for their dedication, at the end of the day snooker is in our blood, it’s all we’ve ever known,” added Hendry, winner of 36 ranking titles during a distinguished career.
“The only thing I’m disappointed is that my golf is going to have go on the back-burner!” ;)
 

Ken Doherty granted new tour card by World Snooker.​


Ken Doherty has been awarded an Invitational Tour Card that will see him continue to compete on the World Snooker Tour for the next two seasons.


Doherty's presence had been in doubt after dropping to 79 in the world rankings following a poor season.


However the governing body has agreed a special exemption for the 1997 world champion.


He will be permitted to enter events during the 2024/25 and 2025/26 seasons.


WST Chairman Steve Dawson said: "In view of Ken’s tremendous record as a player and a fantastic ambassador for snooker, we had no hesitation in offering him a tour card.


"He is a great asset to our sport and also remains very competitive as a player and no doubt fans will continue to enjoy watching him in action over the next two seasons."


Stephen Hendry was also offered an invitational card but has decided not to accept it, bringing his return to regular tour to an end.


He cited his busy schedule in broadcasting and media work as the reason behind his decision.


Hendry, who did not win a match in his final two years on tour, added in the Daily Record: "Let's be honest, I wasn’t pulling up any trees, was I?


"I was a little bit surprised with how good the standard was, but I’ve just got so many other work commitments, I won’t be able to dedicate enough time to practising.


"I know the game inside out, I still know all the shots, but unfortunately the body is not performing like my brain wants it to. I wasn’t putting in the effort the last couple of seasons and, with all my TV commitments and my YouTube channel, it’s just not feasible to do myself justice."

Shaun Murphy, the defending Champion cruises through to the last 32 and Dave Gilbert wins a group where all games were drawn. Decided on highest break and his 136 in the last frame took him from bottom to top.

Last 32 starts tomorrow, then Saturday and competition completes Monday to Wednesday next week,

1719518628885.png
 

Gutsy break sends David Gilbert through.​

David Gilbert produced a remarkable finish to win Group 15 as Stage One of Championship League Snooker concluded on Thursday.





A strange set of results saw all six round-robin fixtures involving Gilbert, Xu Si, Duane Jones, and Andrew Pagett end in 2-2 draws.
With almost everything in the league table identical, their respective positions came down to the highest break compiled during the day’s play in Leicester.


A 100 from Pagett and a 130 from Jones proved not to be enough, which seemed like sending Xu through courtesy of his contribution of 131.


But playing against the Chinese competitor in the last game and trailing 2-1, Gilbert constructed a marvellous run of 136 to advance instead.
In what is largely a dull format, it marked one of the most exciting climaxes to a Championship League Snooker group ever.



The situation was much clearer in Group 3, with defending champion Shaun Murphy easing his way into the last 32.


The Magician, who beat Mark Williams in last year’s final to claim the last of his 12 ranking titles, lost only one frame as he orchestrated a perfect record at the Mattioli Arena.


Murphy secured a brace of 3-0 triumphs over Steven Hallworth and Tian Pengfei either side of a 3-1 victory against Reanne Evans.
e lineup for Stage Two now complete, the next phase of Championship League Snooker can finally begin after almost three weeks of action.


Groups B and C take place on Friday, with both Murphy and Gilbert immediately returning to the fray.


In Group B, Gilbert will face Stuart Bingham, Ashley Carty, and He Guoqiang.


Murphy entertains Hossein Vafaei, Jamie Jones, and Long Zehuang in Group C.


Like before, the player who finishes in first place following the round-robin format will advance. ;)
 
Shaun Murphy impressive winner of his first 2 games and then beaten 3-0 by Hossein Vafaei, meaning they both lose out on frame difference to young Chinese player, Long Zehuang/

Dave Gilbert has qualified easily from the other group.

Also Neil Robertson has withdrawn from tomorrow Group, as returning from sponsor money in China, dates mixup he claims.

So Finals day on Wednesday is as follows:

Ali Carter sneaks through in Championship League Snooker.​

Ali Carter left it late but managed to win Group 5 of Championship League Snooker at the Mattioli Arena in Leicester on Wednesday.





The 2024 Masters runner-up opened his 2024/25 snooker campaign with a 2-2 draw against amateur top-up Joshua Thomand.
That unexpected scoreline immediately put the Captain on the back foot, but he ultimately recovered with back-to-back victories to progress.


Carter overcame tour rookie Kreishh Gurbaxani 3-1 in a scrappy affair and then repeated that result against Xing Zihao.


The latter could have advanced at Carter’s expense with a draw in their final game.
There was late drama as the outcome of their match came down to a tight fourth frame, but Carter ultimately got the job done on the colours.



In Group 16, meanwhile, Fan Zhengyi topped the standings with a similar undefeated record of two triumphs and a draw.


The former European Masters champion recorded a brace of 3-0 victories over Alfie Burden and Zhou Yuelong, either side of a 2-2 tie with Mink Nutcharut.


Zhou had been the group’s top seed but surprisingly ended the day in last position having scored just a point from his three fixtures.
The first stage of this year’s Championship League Snooker finally concludes on Thursday with the last couple of groups.


Defending champion Shaun Murphy enters the fray in Group 3 alongside Tian Pengfei, Reanne Evans, and Steven Hallworth.


Another former champion fronts Group 15, with David Gilbert in action against Xu Si, Andrew Pagett, and Duane Jones. ;)

Carter scrambled through again yesterday in a 3 player group after Neil Robertson withdrew. They played each other twice and Lisowski was shocking in the first 3 games but then beat Wu Yize in their second game meaning he had to beat Carter to win the group but only managed a draw.

Starts again on Monday with 2 more days to determine the final 8 for Wednesday. Carter the second to prated left in the event, after Mark Williams who plays tomorrow.

Snooker enjoys ‘incredible’ success amid new Masters sponsor.​

The World Snooker Tour (WST) has announced that the Masters will be sponsored by Johnstone’s Paint for the next three years.


The deal will see WST and Johnstone’s Paint expand on an existing partnership to include title sponsorship of The Masters, part of the sport’s Triple Crown Series alongside the World Championship and the UK Championship.


Johnstone’s Paint served as the lead partner for both the Players Championship and Tour Championship, offering various themed activities and initiatives for snooker enthusiasts. This partnership aims to further evolve at the sport’s premier invitation event over the next three years.

Additionally, Johnstone’s Paint plans to leverage its new association with snooker to support community projects. In education, they collaborate on STEM learning initiatives and will engage schoolchildren in designing player waistcoats for tournament wear.


New World Champion Kyren Wilson, commented: “The Masters has grown so much in recent years, many players consider it the best atmosphere on the tour and it is a title that everyone wants to win. Having landed the world title, the Masters is now at the top of my list!


“It’s fantastic to bring Johnstone’s Paint on board as title sponsor, I’m sure they have great ideas to work together with our sport and help us engage with fans.”


The 2025 Johnstone’s Paint Masters is scheduled to take place from January 12-19 at Alexandra Palace in London. This event, first held in 1975, will feature the world’s top 16 players competing for a prize pool exceeding £1m and the championship trophy.

Peter Wright, Chief Commercial Officer at WST, said: “We are delighted to build on this exciting partnership and to continue to create a colourful future by working with Johnstone’s Paint.


“In recent years, the Johnstone’s Paint Masters has made huge leaps forward to the extent that every session is packed with an audience of over 2,000, and the experience of coming to Alexandra Palace has become a bucket list item for fans who love live sport.


“Snooker is enjoying incredible progress in terms of our television audience, live attendance and digital growth and we are pleased to welcome Johnstone’s Paint as part of this journey. We will be working closely with them on a range of initiatives including their outstanding community projects.”

In March, Snooker became the latest sport to host an event in Saudi Arabia after the WST announced its plans to include the country on its calendar in January. ;)
 

​

Snooker in July 2024 – what events are on this month?​

The 2024/25 snooker season is under way, and the first trophies of the new term will be handed out during the month of July.





It won’t be until into September that we can get properly immersed in the latest campaign on the World Snooker Tour.
A stop-start opening means that there are only two events scheduled to be played between June and the end of August.


But silverware will be won in July, including a prestigious invitational title, so let’s take a look at what snooker is on the horizon.


Championship League Snooker​


June 10 – July 3​



Championship League Snooker began several weeks ago at the Mattioli Arena in Leicester, launching the new season as has become customary
in recent years.


The remaining exchanges of the lengthy tournament will take place during the first few days of July.


Four players have already made it through Stage Two and are guaranteed spots in the last eight of the competition on Wednedsay.


Monday and Tuesday’s play will see the other four players join them in Stage Three, when the final two groups of the event will be conducted.
The two table-toppers on Wednesday will then duke it out over a sprint five-frame format to determine the season’s first ranking champion.

Shanghai Masters​

July 15 – 21​

The Shanghai Masters, one of the most prestigious invitational tournaments in snooker these days, takes place later in July.
Ronnie O’Sullivan has won the event the last four times it has been staged, including last year when he overcame Luca Brecel in a close final.
The format sees the top 16 from the official world rankings list welcomed to the Shanghai Grand Stage.
Eight other spots in the 24-player field are taken up by Chinese competitors – the next four highest ranked cueists on the main tour from China in addition to four young wildcard amateurs from the country’s amateur scene.
O’Sullivan will be the favourite in the outright betting market to land what would be a record-extending sixth Shanghai Masters title.

World champion Kyren Wilson, world number one Mark Allen, and O’Sullivan’s big rivals Judd Trump and Mark Selby are among the other high-profile stars in the draw.
2024 Shanghai Masters draw

Qualifying Rounds​

July 25 – August 3​

Towards the end of the month, there is a big batch of qualifiers pencilled in at the Mattioli Arena in Leicester.
The inaugurual Xi-an Grand Prix will have its preliminary stage held from July 25th to July 27th.
That will be quickly followed by qualifying for both the Wuhan Open (July 28th to July 30th) and the British Open (July 31st to August 3rd).
The draws for these events haven’t been released yet.

What other snooker events are on in July, 2024?​

The next tournament on the World Women’s Snooker Tour doesn’t take place until August when the US Women’s Open returns to Seattle.
It’s a similar situation on the WDBS circuit, with the German Masters scheduled for the first week of August.

On the amateur scene, the second event on the Middle East Q Tour will be staged from July 19 to 21 in Dubai.
