  • The 2025 Welsh Open (officially the 2025 BetVictor Welsh Open) is an upcoming professional snooker tournament that will be held from 10 to 16 February 2025 at Venue Cymru in Llandudno, Wales. It will be the thirteenth ranking event of the 2024ā€ā€“ā€25 season and the fourth and final tournament in the season's Home Nations Series. The winner will receive Ā£100,000 from a total prize fund of Ā£550,400, the Ray Reardon trophy, and a place in the 2025 Champion of Champions invitational event.
    Gary Wilson is the defending champion, having defeated Martin O'Donnell 9ā€ā€“ā€4 in the 2024 final.


    Format



    The event is the 34th consecutive edition of the Welsh Open since it was first played in 1992, making it snooker's third longest running ranking tournament after the World Championship and UK Championship. The fourth and final event in the season's Home Nations Series (following the 2024 Scottish Open), and the 13th ranking tournament of the 2024ā€ā€“ā€25 season (following the 2025 German Masters and preceding the 2025 World Open), it will take place from 10 to 16 February 2025 at Venue Cymru in Llandudno, Wales.
    Qualifying will take place from 4 to 6 February 2025 in Barnsley, England. The WST implemented a new format for the four Home Nations events and the German Masters this season. In qualifying round one, players seeded 65ā€ā€“ā€96 face those seeded 97ā€ā€“ā€128. In qualifying round two, the 32 round one winners play those seeded 33ā€ā€“ā€64. The 32 round two winners then play the top 32 seeds in the first round of the main stage.
    All matches are played as the best of seven frames until the quarterā€‘finals, which are the best of nine. The semiā€‘finals are the best of 11, and the final is a best of 17 frames match played over two sessions. The defending champion is Gary Wilson, who defeated Martin O'Donnell 9ā€ā€“ā€4 in the 2024 final in what was O'Donnell's first ranking final.
