How much will the winner of the Welsh Open snooker final earn?

This Sunday in Llandudno is the final of the Welsh Open snooker tournament. A year ago, Robert Wilkins won the title after a tight 9-7 victory over Shaun Murphy in the 2023 final. The sport’s Home Nations series for this season will come to a close with the match between Martin O’Donnell and Gary Wilson.

The 64 players that played for the coveted Ray Reardon Trophy will split a pot of £427,000 at the end of it all. This amount represents the exact amount distributed in the previous year, however it is higher than the £405,000 that was offered in 2022.

And the ultimate winner will undoubtedly go away with the £80,000 top cash prize. That is more than twice as much as the runner-up, who will receive £35,000.

£11,000 has been granted to those who were ousted in the last eight, while the two losing semi-finalists received a consolation prize of £17,500. £7,500 was properly given to the eight players who were eliminated from the tournament and sent home.

The is moving on to the grand finale!

Even though John Higgins rallies from deficits of 4-0 and 5-1 to win it 5-4, Gary Wilson wins the semifinal 6-4.

Just £4,500 was earned from a second-round exit at Venue Cymru, and the £3,000 was awarded to those who made a single match appearance in north Wales. In addition, an additional cash prize of £5,000 will be given away to the player who makes the biggest break at the end of the day.
