Il Players Championship è un torneo professionistico di snooker, valido per il Ranking, che si è disputato tra il 2017 e il 2018 a Llandudno, in Galles nel 2019 a Preston, nel 2020 a Southport, nel 2021 a Milton Keynes e dal 2022 a Wolverhampton, in Inghilterra.

Regolamento

Per partecipare i giocatori devono essere classificati tra i primi 16 nella classifica che comprende solo i punti accumulati dal primo torneo della stagione a quello che precede questo senza considerare i Non-Ranking.

Storia

Prima della creazione del Players Championship, nel Main Tour dal 2011 al 2016 esisteva già una competizione con formula simile: dopo una serie di eventi durante la stagione, i primi 32 giocatori che avevano guadagnato di più partecipavano ad un torneo chiamato Players Tour Championship Finals.[1]

Dopo che quest'ultimo è stato cancellato, nel 2017 il Players Championship entra a far parte del calendario dei professionisti a Llandudno in Galles, con vittoria di Judd Trump su Marco Fu.[2] Nel 2018 e nel 2019 vince Ronnie O'Sullivan rispettivamente contro Shaun Murphy e Neil Robertson per 10-4 in entrambe le volte; nell'ultimo frame della finale dell'edizione 2019 l'inglese conquista il suo 1.000° "centone" in carriera, ricevendo una grande ovazione dal pubblico.[3][4][5]

Nel 2020 Judd Trump conquista il suo secondo successo battendo Yan Bingtao. In questa edizione manca a difendere i due titoli Ronnie O'Sullivan che non si qualifica dato il suo 18º posto nella classifica stagionale prima dell'inizio del torneo.[6][7]

Il torneo fa parte della Coral Cup insieme al World Grand Prix e al Tour Championship.[8]
