Race To Ally Pally
A significant sub-plot during the Betway UK championship is the race to qualify for the Dafabet Masters.
Only the top 16 seeds will earn a place at snooker’s biggest invitation event, to take place at Alexandra Palace from January 15-22.
The cut off point falls at the end of the current event, and with a £170,000 top prize on offer in York, there are plenty of players currently outside the top 16 who can make a giant leap.
