The Masters continues to generate sensational drama with the finest players in the world duelling for the title at Alexandra Palace.

Tonight's final is set to be a tense one, with Judd Trump and Mark Williams facing off in what is set to be a triumphant clash.

Williams is going into the Masters final in his first appearance since 2003 and 12 months after a stunning semi-final defeat to Neil Robertson.

While Stuart Bingham had previously blitzed Shaun Murphy in Friday's tense quarter-final clash, he wasn't on the same form in Saturday's semi-final against Trump, who is the world number 4 and the 2019 Masters champion.

Given the quality of players left in the tournament, we can only expect more brilliance to come from the final match between Trump and Williams.

The tournament is going ahead under a cloud following the suspension of Yan Bingtao and Zhao Xintong from the competition amid a match-fixing investigation.

Fans around the world have been keen to see attention return to the table with the finest players on the planet colliding in this most prestigious tournament.

RadioTimes.com brings you everything you need to know to enjoy watching the tournament, including times and schedule.
