World Open Snooker 2025 results, schedule, TV channel and prize money

The World Open is seeing a lot of big names stumble early on as the likes of Judd Trump, Kyren Wilson, Mark Selby and Mark Allen are all out before the last 16 stage. Trump arrived in Yushan having won the last two editions of the event and looked very strong in his opening two wins.

However, Joe O’Connor was impressive in beating the world number one in the last 32 on Tuesday, ending a 16-match winning streak in the competition for the Ace. Allen was shocked early on by David Lilley while Liu Hongyu beat Selby who had been in great form in winning the Welsh Open just a few days earlier.

There have been impressive performances so far from big names, though, with Shaun Murphy shining brighter than anyone. The Magician made a 147 in his 5-0 win over wildcard player Zhou Jinhao and then followed that up with another 5-0 whitewash of Thepchaiya Un-Nooh.

The Masters champion looks like he will be tough to stop but there are other contenders left in the draw who will look to beat him to the trophy on Saturday, including John Higgins, Ding Junhui and Barry Hawkins. Wednesday 26 February. 06.00am. Pang Junxu vs Xu Si.

Barry Hawkins vs Ryan Day. Liu Hongyu vs Zak Surety. John Higgins vs Zhou Yuelong. 11.30am. Tom Ford vs Jimmy Robertson. Joe O’Connor vs Michael Holt. Ding Junhui vs Shaun Murphy.
