Event two of the ‘Race to the Crucible’ series takes place on 27-29 September at The Crucible Club in Reading, England.
A total of 54 cueists from eight nations will compete in the three-day event which is the second 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 is Alfie Burden, who won the first event of the series last month, and the current number one in the World Seniors Snooker rankings – Stuart Watson.
