Seven new tournaments will be staged in the coming season as part of World Snooker’s innovative Pro Challenge Series.
The series, which starts in late July, will be open to all 96 players on the professional circuit, giving extra opportunities to play competitive matches and compete for prize money.
The series will supplement the Tour of world ranking and invitation tournaments run by World Snooker.
Four of the seven events in the Pro Challenge Series will use the standard 15-red format, while the other three will use the Super Sixes format, which was first trialled at the recent Betfred.com World Snooker Championship.
Pro Challenge Series Event one will take place in the Northern Snooker Centre, Leeds on 28-30 July and will feature 40 Main Tour players. Go to www.worldsnooker.com for full tournament draw and format.
