The first event of the brand new ‘Race to the Crucible’ series takes place on 9-11 August at The Crucible Club in Reading, England.
A total of 54 cueists from five nations will compete in the three-day event which is the first of nine that will be staged. The new series offers qualification for the World Seniors Snooker Championship at the Crucible Theatre next May.
The top two ranked players at the conclusion of the series will earn places at the World Seniors Snooker Championship, while those who finish between third and tenth will qualify for the ‘Top 16 Shootout’ – where a further place in Sheffield will be on offer.
Among those in the line-up this weekend include 2023 World Seniors Snooker Championship runner-up Alfie Burden and top seed Stuart Watson, who reached the quarter-finals at this year’s event.
