Shanghai Masters snooker on TV 2024: Channel, schedule and live stream
Your complete guide to how to watch the Shanghai Masters 2024 on TV and live stream, including full broadcast details.
This year's Shanghai Masters snooker tournament is here, with 24 players from across the globe arriving at Shanghai Stadium.
Among those taking part will be the top 16 players in the world, with the four next-best Chinese players joining them, along with four amateur wildcard players.
Last year's masters was won by Ronnie O'Sullivan, retaining his title after winning the previous three tournaments in 2017, 2018 and 2019 (it was cancelled between 2020 and 2023 due to the Covid pandemic).
However, O'Sullivan faced strong competition in the final from Belgium's Luca Brecel, who will be taking part again this year – could he lift the trophy instead this year? Or could one of the other contenders, such as Mark Allen or Kyren Wilson, take the prize pot? It's all to play for.
But how can viewers in the UK watch the masters, when is it taking place, and how much prize money is available?
