Tuesday 23rd of November - Sunday 5th of December at the York Barbican Centre

There is going to be a new UK Champion this year none of the players have made the semi-finals before with Brecel and Wilson made the Quarter Finals twice before (Wilson 2020 and 2018), (Brecel 2016 and 2012) and Barry Hawkins best was the 2013 Quarter Final.

Zhao Xintong has reached the Semi final of a ranking event before the 2018 China Championship, losing 6-4 to eventual Champion Mark Selby.

Who will make the final?

Zhao v Luca Final would be immense, exactly what the sport needs.

But Hawkins and Kyren are experienced players, both with one WC and Masters Final each, just the UK missing. Both Hawkins and Kyren have had similar careers actually, but Kyren's younger of course.

Brilliant semi-final line up. Got to love snooker :-D

Like most people, I'm hoping for a Zhao Brecel final, though that's the least likely possibility. I'm fine with it if it's Hawkins v Wilson. That would be a good match to watch too.

Zhao might not be phased by that based on his recent performances. Luca, I’m not so sure, had promise, dipped, but playing good right now, can he keep it going? But agree a Luca v Zhou final would be good, it would be loads of nervy mistakes, lots of early drama, and one of them will pull ahead at the end.

No it wouldn’t, that’s the worst possible final :)

Any final match up from this combination of players will be good. A refreshing change to get to this stage and know there will be a new name on the trophy.

Good luck to all four players, just hoping for at least one decider in the three matches remaining (two would better, three would go down in history as one of the greatest weekends in snooker history).

Put the negativity aside, and enjoy the feasts ahead of you is my advice <ok>

xintong can qualify for the masters by making the final unless brecel wins the tournament.zhou yuelong in 16th at the moment.

I suspect it rules out Luca also

Maybe his parents found out he was socialising online with a group of anonymous middle aged men and he got a Yanfan ban :shrug:
