Brentwood will be home to some of the best snooker players in the world as it is set to host the 10th edition of the English Open beginning Thursday, September 11.
Neil Robertson comes into this year's English Open as the defending champion after defeating China's Wu Yize 9-7 to claim the title.
He will once again be the favourite to win the title for a second successive year after his victory at the 2025 Saudi Arabia Masters. Furthermore, his odds will be boosted by his rival Ronnie O'Sullivan's absence from the tournament.
As one of snooker's biggest global events continues, The Sporting News has all your scheduling, TV and streaming details covered from the 2025 English Open at the Brentwood Centre.
