All of snooker's top 16 are in the field for the 2024 Shanghai Masters which runs from July 15 to 21.
The historic tournament was first staged in 2007 and was a ranking event until 2017 before changing to an invitation event. Ronnie O'Sullivan will be aiming to lift the trophy for the fifth time in a row having won the title in 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2023. Last year he beat Luca Brecel 11-9 in the final.
The line up includes all of the world's top 16 players, plus the next four highest ranked Chinese players, as well as four wild cards.
The top eight are seeded into the last 16, and O'Sullivan's first match at the Grand Stage will be against either Zhang Anda or a wild card. World Champion Kyren Wilson will meet either Barry Hawkins or Zhou Yuelong, while Mark Williams could earn a clash with Judd Trump by winning his opening tie against a wild card. The draw for the wild cards will be made during the opening ceremony on July 14.
