2025 Tour Championship

The 2025 Tour Championship (officially the 2025 Sportsbet.io Tour Championship) was a professional snooker tournament that took place from 31 March to 6 April 2025 at Manchester Central in Manchester, England. The 17th and penultimate ranking event of the 2024‍–‍25 season, it followed the 2025 Players Championship and preceded the 2025 World Snooker Championship. It was the last of three events in the Players Series, following the 2025 World Grand Prix and the Players Championship. Organised by the World Snooker Tour and sponsored by the betting firm Sportsbet.io, the event was broadcast by ITV Sport domestically and by other broadcasters worldwide. The winner received £150,000 from a total prize fund of £500,000. The event featured the top 12 players on the one-year ranking list as it stood after the Players Championship. The top four players on the list were seeded through to the quarter-finals. Mark Williams was the defending champion, having defeated Ronnie O'Sullivan 10‍–‍5 in the previous year's final, but he was beaten 3‍–‍10 by Ding Junhui in the first round. John Higgins won the tournament, defeating Mark Selby 10‍–‍8 in the final to claim his first Tour Championship title and the 33rd ranking title of his career. It was also the 100th ranking title won by a member of the Class of '92. The final of the event produced eight century breaks, four by each player. This equalled the record for the most centuries in a best-of-19-frame match, which had been set by Neil Robertson and Judd Trump in the final of the 2019 Champion of Champions. The tournament produced a total of 39 century breaks, of which the highest was a 144 by Higgins in his semi-final match against Barry Hawkins.
