I think this will happen once a Belgium player wins the World Snooker Championships :chin:


Though Continental Europe has an ever increasing fan-base, it's China (and Saudi Arabia too now) that put in the money. So that's where the tournaments go.

Tiered format for Home Nations and German Masters:

The 32-tier structure is something they should have done for a few years instead of moving to immediately to the flat-128 draws.

Also dates confirmed for the Tour Championship, 31/Mar - 06/Apr in Manchester:
