Shanghai Masters snooker on TV 2023: Channel, schedule and live stream
Your complete guide to how to watch the Shanghai Masters 2023 on TV and live stream, including full broadcast details.
Elite-level snooker will return to mainland China for the first time since 2019 as the Shanghai Masters kicks off.
The COVID-19 pandemic saw the event cancelled in 2020 and in each successive year until now, but the tournament – and its hefty prize pot – is back.
Ronnie O'Sullivan won the last event in 2019 with a narrow 11-9 victory over Shaun Murphy. Neil Robertson and Mark Allen made the final four.
The fledgling 2023/24 snooker season has already seen Mark Williams claim the Championship League title, while Barry Hawkins recorded a triumph in the European Masters last time out.
The Shanghai Masters is a non-ranking event, but that won't stop the elite players travelling across to China in the hunt for a healthy pay day and a slice of glory.
RadioTimes.com brings you all the details about how to watch the Shanghai Masters 2023.
