BetVictor European Series Set For Second Season
Judd Trump won the inaugural BetVictor European Series earlier this year, earning the £150,000 bonus.
The BetVictor European Series will return in the upcoming World Snooker Tour campaign.
The series operates with a unique ranking list over four events, with the player earning the most prize money pocketing a bumper bonus of £150,000. Last season, world number one Judd Trump secured the lucrative payout, after wins at the BetVictor German Masters and the BetVictor Gibraltar Open.
The four events this season are:
- 2021 BetVictor German Masters (Dates TBC)
- 2021 BetVictor Gibraltar Open (Dates TBC)
- 2021 BetVictor Shoot Out (Dates TBC)
- 2021 BetVictor Welsh Open (Dates TBC)
One change from last season’s series sees the BetVictor Welsh Open, which will also remain a Home Nations event, replace the European Masters.
The BetVictor Shoot Out was originally set to run from 29th October to November 1st. However, it has now been rescheduled to 2021. We will announce dates for all of the events in due course.
WST Chairman Barry Hearn said: “We are absolutely thrilled to announce the continuation of this brilliant series. BetVictor are a fantastic sponsor and we love working alongside them. The support they continue to show snooker in these uncertain times is superb.
“I was gripped by last season’s BetVictor European Series and the cream rose to the top, with world number one Judd Trump claiming the £150,000 bonus. We will continue to incentivise players to enter events and reward them with opportunities to boost their prize money. I eagerly anticipate watching this intriguing series play out again this season.”
