And while you watch Ronnie O’Sullivan, Mark Selby, Judd Trump and the rest, why not have a browse through these green baize scenes closer to home.
You might remember the World Trickshot Championship which was held at Crowtree Leisure Centre 20 years ago.
From the same year, we’ve got the snooker finals at Pennywell Comrades Club and action from Cheemas in 2007.
And then there’s Jimmy White on the table at Rileys in 2006.
That’s just for starters. Take a break and have a look at our snooker tribute.
