DAZN To Broadcast Riyadh Season World Masters Of Snooker Worldwide

Fans worldwide will be able to enjoy live coverage of the new Riyadh Season World Masters Of Snooker this week through DAZN’s freemium channels and services. 
 
The event runs from Monday to Wednesday (March 4-6) and matches will include a unique new concept, a 23rd ball known as the Riyadh Season ball. This gold ball will be worth 20 points and can only be potted once all other balls have been successfully cleared from the table if a player is on a maximum break to make it 167.
