The 2025 Masters at Alexandra Palace sees the likes of Judd Trump, Mark Selby and Mark Allen gunning for the title after Ronnie O’Sullivan’s late withdrawal. The Masters kicks off the 2025 snooker calendar as 16 of the best players in the world gather at Alexandra Palace to compete for one of the sport’s biggest prizes.
The Masters celebrates its 50th anniversary this year and the tournament is one of snooker’s triple crown of events, along with the World Championship in April and the UK Championship won by Judd Trump last month. Trump is the favourite to lift the trophy come next Sunday for the third time in his career, especially after Ronnie O’Sullivan withdrew from the event at short notice on medical grounds.
Defending champion O’Sullivan was set to face old rival John Higgins on Sunday afternoon in a blockbuster clash to kickstart the Ally Pally tournament but has now been replaced by two-time winner Neil Robertson (who was ranked 17th at the seeding cut-off) and the Australian will have real ambition to win the event, as will the likes of Mark Selby, reigning world champion Kyren Wilson and Mark Allen.
Here is everything you need to know about the 2025 Masters:. The Masters begins on Sunday 12 January at Alexandra Palace, and the final will be played on Sunday 19 January. The entire championship will be live on the BBC, with BBC Two, BBC Four, the BBC red button, BBC iPlayer and BBC Sport website showing every match across the eight days.
