Snooker chiefs have made an announcement regarding the 2023 World Championship. According to the World Snooker Tour website, from next year all the tournament’s qualifying rounds will be played over the best of 19 frames.
This decision was made based on feedback from the World Professional Billiards and Snooker Association (WPBSA) and players to revert back to the previous format. This is significantly longer than matches played over best of 11 frames, which had been the format of recent seasons.
The dates for the qualifying event will be announced at a later date. Also announced was the increase in prize money for several events in 2023.
