The British Open begins with a bang today as some of the finest stars in world snooker take to the table in Milton Keynes.

Reigning champion Mark Williams has always blazed his way into the second round with a victory over Andres Petrov this afternoon.

Top seed Ronnie O’Sullivan is, once again, the main attraction this evening as he faces Alexander Ursenbacher, while No.2 seed Judd Trump is also in action against Si Jiahui.

Newly-crowned European Masters champion Kyren Wilson is also on the billing tonight as he aims to continue his good start to the fresh season.

One of the matches of the night could be Hossein Vafaei’s match against Joe Perry with the pair sitting as No.16 and No.25 seed respectively. It’s a tough opening draw for both men.
