The 2024/25 WPBSA Q Tour Europe series gets underway on Thursday 15 August at the Northern Snooker Centre in Leeds.
There will be a new Q Tour record of 154 cueists from 26 nations competing for glory in the first of seven Q Tour Europe events to be staged across the continent during the 2024/25 season.
Due to the record number of entries, play will now begin on Thursday 15 August at 14:30 BST with 34 matches contested on the opening day.
Among those in the field is Peter Lines, who won the last Q Tour event to be staged at the Northern Snooker Centre back in February, and Germany’s Umut Dikme – who won a Q Tour title on home soil last season.
The top ranked player at the conclusion of the Q Tour Europe series will receive a two-year World Snooker Tour (WST) tour card while a further three tour cards will be on offer at the Q Tour Global play-offs.
