Snooker - Women's World Championship
Inaugurated in 1976 as the Women's World Open, changing its name to the World Ladies Championship from 1983 to 2018 before adopting its current name from 2019, this is the most prestigious female-only tournament in the sport. Since 2021, the winner has earned a two-year card on the World Snooker Tour (WST) to compete against the top male players, as has the leader of the Women's World Rankings. If either, or both, are already on the WST, the next highest players on the rankings earn those cards.
