The third staging of the Riyadh Season Snooker Championship takes place in Saudi Arabia's capital this week with headline act Ronnie O'Sullivan set to feature.
'The Rocket' won the inaugural edition but Mark Allen is the reigning and defending champion having beaten Luca Brecel last December.
With plenty of prize money on offer, the tournament also features a unique golden ball worth 20 points — if any player makes a maximum 147 break then pots the gold ball he'll win an unprecedented $1 million bonus.
