Event three of the ‘Race to the Crucible’ series takes place on 11-13 October at The Crucible Club in Reading, England.
A total of 49 cueists from four nations will compete in the three-day event which is the third 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.
Former World Seniors Championship winners Lee Walker and Aaron Canavan are among those in action this weekend in Berkshire. The first two events of the season were won by Alfie Burden and Rory McLeod respectively, neither of who feature in event three.
