They're doing just that this season for what they call the "European Tour", so why not in the English one?

How about 100k for winning three out of four? Still very difficult, but at least possible.

Because Hearn wants to create hype, without paying out the money.

Yeah this is pretty clear imo.

It would be easy to have a staggered bonus i.e. an extra £200K for winning two, £500K for winning three, £1M for winning all.

But Hearn (somewhat understandably) has no interest in risking paying that out.

Top notch!!

This is when you know Jimmy needs to retire. The longer he continues to play, the more embarrassing things are going to get for him.

Class from Davis.

This is his backyard.

Think that’s a bit harsh, BSP.

No doubt Ronnie talks and acts like a hammer at times, but to bring looks into it is needlessly antagonistic and beyond the pale in my opinion.

Well aside from the fact there are no horses or silks or winner’s enclosures or Guinness tents or fences or vets or races or photo finishes or best-dressed lady prizes or rubbish on the playing surface or updates on the going or people falling on their baboons shiny behinds, snooker is a lot like horse racing.
