Tuesday 11th~Saturday 15th of June in Yixing, China

Asian Tour Events are a platform for the many Asian and inparticular the Chinese players to rub shoulders with the very best players in the World and get a place on the Main Tour for the following season, and this week that's what's going to happen.

Players will include John Higgins, Mark Williams, Graeme Dott, James Wattana, Joe Perry, Jack Lisowski, Marco Fu, Jimmy White, Dominic Dale, Liang Wenbo, Alan McManus, Michael White and heading the field will be Mark Selby and Chinese no 1 Ding Junhui.

Also taking part this week will be some familiar but missing names from the Tour Igor Figueiredo and Hossein Vafael Ayouri.

Who will be the champion this week ahead of the Wuxi Classic?

Quite a turnaround - this tournament starts on Tuesday!

Sofia to Yixing must be one of the most awkward journeys World Snooker could've thought of.

The players will probably either have to travel home to Heathrow and then transfer straight to Shanghai, or go via Frankfurt or Paris. Not a trip that would take less than a day normally. The players who got through to today will be knackered.

Love the idea of an Asian PTC just before the ranking event in China as a warm up. You'd think only those going to Wuxi would consider it though so how many are making the trip who didn't qualify for Wuxi?

Hes Selby mate and maybe he has a money spinner exhibition lined up in Yixing as well.

Mike Dunn has virtually said on Twitter if there was Ranking points on the moon this season he will be there collecting what he can

I suppose he can afford it and will get rested up while the others are in Wuxi but still, seems pointless. If the idea is to manage your season better to avoid burning out then going to this tinpot Wuxi warm up event totally goes against that.

Sonny wrote:Yeah I can understand Dunny going especially if he's got his bus fare paid but not Selby.

maybe he entered before Wuxi last 128 and feel obliged to fulfill it...Holt has pulled out probably because hes not in wuxi though.

Maybe he just wanted some more match practise before Australia? Obviously coming in cold hasn't done him any good since he's lost his only match of the season so far and to Andrew Pagett as well...

So for 5 of the Pros the season starts today.

Cao Xinlong (who had wins last year as an amateur against Dominic Dale and Ding Junhui), opens his account against amateur Shan Xianshu.

Hossein Vafaei Ayouri has a tricky start against last years APTC 3 quarter finalist Hu Hao, who had wins last year against Ryan Day and Xiao Guodong.

Jin Long, one of the best Chinese players with a long string of wins as an amateur against the pros (into double figures), starts his own pro career facing amateur Lei Zhen, who had 4 - 1 defeats in the opening matches of each of last year's APTC events, but won his qualifying round match this morning.

Igor Figueiredo returns to the Pro ranks - or at least he was supposed to - unlike the other players here, I can't see him on World Snooker's latest ranking list. He starts AT1 with a match against Chinese amateur Zhong Lin.

Shi Hanqing, who reached Round 4 in 2 APTC events last year, opens against amateur An Dongchi.

Edit - well, 4 start today - Shi Hanqing's match is tomorrow

That link seems to be working! Hard to know who is playing, but a welcome change from livesport who are showing squat, contrary to earlier claims. And to think I actually payed cash for that scam.

the chinese have people that are willing to pay up for a service and and dont expect free service thats why in other countries streaming works the Brits dont suport Live Streaming so something has t give im sorry but theres nobody apart from fans to blame.

Plus thoes Streams are TV Streams Live World Snooker Qualifying are self funded.
