Recently dethroned world number one Allen is yet to contend a title match at the English Open, but he is determined to put that right later this month and can't wait for the action to get underway.

“It will be great. We have a run of events with the English Open, then the British Open and Belfast (Northern Ireland Open) around the corner. I love the travelling, but it is also nice to be back in the UK," said 11-time ranking event winner Allen.

“Brentwood hasn’t always brought good results for me but I would like to go there and put that right this year. I feel I have been consistent and going to the business end of a lot of tournaments so it would be nice to go one further. I’ve never been to the final of the English Open so it would be nice to be there come Sunday night and be in with a chance."
