Snooker
UK Championship
The second most important tournament on the circuit, the UK is played over two session matches in the closing, televised stages. It is traditionally held towards the end of each year. From 1977-83 it was only open to UK residents but thereafter it has been contested by professional players from around the world and was granted ranking event status in 1984.
