WST is delighted to announce a new partnership with Spreadex as the title sponsor of the World Grand Prix.

The Spreadex World Grand Prix will run from January 15th to 21st in Leicester and it’s an elite field of the best 32 players of the season so far. It’s the first event in the prestigious Players Series, and only those in form are rewarded with a place in the line-up for the ITV-televised tournament.

Mark Allen will be defending the title in a field which incudes the likes of Ronnie O’Sullivan, Judd Trump, Mark Selby, John Higgins, Mark Williams, Shaun Murphy and Ding Junhui. 

Spreadex will also be a secondary partner of the Players Championship in Telford (February 19th to 25th) and the series-concluding Tour Championship at Manchester Central (April 1st to 7th)

Spreadex Head of Marketing Andy MacKenzie said: “We’re delighted to be partnering with the WST for the Spreadex World Grand Prix and in support of the Players Championship and Tour Championship.
 
“We see great synergies between the brands and with snooker in general, as our snooker spread betting product in particular focuses on the statistical, mathematical and analytical side of the game.
 
“Just as we do with our relationships with our football Championship Partner Clubs, we’ll be looking to give snooker fans plenty of things to look forward to by way of competitions, giveaways and content via our social channels in the coming months.”

“We are thrilled to join forces with Spreadex for the first time and look forward to working with their innovative team across the Players Series. The Spreadex World Grand Prix will be an outstanding event contested by our sport’s biggest stars, bringing huge exposure worldwide to the Spreadex brand.”
