The British Open 2022 offers the biggest opportunity to rack up points in the fledgling 2022/23 season so far.
The eventual champion will earn 100,000 ranking points and is likely to shoot to the top of the charts for this term as players jostle for position with a busy winter approaching.
Kyren Wilson will hope to build momentum following his triumph in the European Masters, while Barry Hawkins will hope to press up the charts after reaching the final in that one.
The British Open returned to the tour last year following a 17-year hiatus and the comeback edition was won by Welshman Mark Williams, who defeated Gary Wilson 6-4 in the final showdown.
Ronnie O’Sullivan, Judd Trump and the cast of usual suspects will all descend on Milton Keynes for the tournament this week.
