Your complete guide to how to watch the Shoot Out 2023 on TV and live stream, including full broadcast details.
The snooker calendar is evolving with the Shoot Out, arguably the most innovative new tournament format, being given a chance to flourish.
Every match consists of a single frame lasting a maximum of 10 minutes. The first five minutes of the match see players on a 15-second shot clock, the latter half sees time whittled down to a 10-second shot clock.
Players must also ensure that they hit the cushion with at least one ball per shot to avoid a points penalty.
Snooker purists may never be converted, but there’s a place for everything on the snooker calendar, and this rapid-fire version of the game is fast, furious and entertaining.
Reigning champion Chris Wakelin is back to defend his title, while Mark Allen, Mark Williams and Kyren Wilson are among a number of big names taking part in the festivities.
