Official: Saudi Snooker Masters returns in August, with a total prize of more than 2 million pounds

According to the official news of the World Snooker Tour, the second Saudi Snooker Masters will make a wonderful return in Jeddah from August 8 to 16.

This summer, the world's best snooker and nine-ball players will gather in Saudi Arabia again, which is also part of the ten-year milestone cooperation between the two sides. This cooperation will continue to bring two prestigious billiards events to Saudi Arabia, helping to shape the future of billiards throughout the Middle East. The "Crown Pearl" World 9-Ball Championship will be held in Jeddah from July 21 to 26 this year, and the Saudi Snooker Masters will debut in Jeddah from August 8 to 16 this year.

From August 8 to 16, the Saudi Snooker Masters will debut in Jeddah's iconic GreenHalls. This ranking competition will invite all 128 players from the World Snooker Tour and 16 wild card players from Saudi Arabia to compete for more than £2 million, which also makes it the second most expensive event in the 2025 World Snooker Tour calendar.

In addition to the three traditional snooker competitions, the Saudi Masters will continue to enhance snooker's global reputation and influence. Last year, Trump defeated Mark Williams 10-9 in the finals to win the first championship.
