A groundbreaking new snooker event series is set to launch, with some of the sport’s most iconic players set to compete in a format designed to captivate fans worldwide. Leading the lineup is six-time world champion Ronnie O’Sullivan, a legend of the game whose charismatic style and unmatched skill have made him a global fan favorite. Joining him in this star-studded series are fellow legends including Stephen Hendry, Steve Davis, and Jimmy White, each bringing their own legacy and unique style to the competition.
Organizers of the series, dubbed the “Snooker Legends Tour,” are aiming to create an exciting showcase of elite snooker talent by blending traditional matches with engaging new formats that offer a fresh twist on the game. This series will not only celebrate snooker’s top champions but also aims to attract younger audiences through shorter match formats and more interactive viewing experiences.
For O’Sullivan, joining the tour is both an opportunity to reconnect with longtime rivals and to celebrate the sport in a fun, more relaxed environment. “I’m thrilled to be part of this new venture. It’s all about the fans and giving them a show, and I think it’s going to be great fun,” O’Sullivan shared in a recent interview.
The Snooker Legends Tour promises more than just nostalgia, featuring matches with real stakes and competitive intensity. Each event will be held in iconic venues across Europe and Asia, drawing fans from around the world. With broadcasting deals already in place with major networks, the tour’s organizers hope to reach millions of viewers and spark renewed global interest in the sport.
