Luca Brecel and Reanne Evans won the 2024 World Mixed Doubles, beating Mark Selby and Rebecca Kenna 4-2 in the final at Manchester Central.
Showcasing snooker as one of the few major sports where men and women can compete together on an equal footing, the two-day event features four teams, each with one man and one woman.
The format sees all teams facing each other once in the group stage, before the top two go through to the final.
WST’s Chief Marketing and Communications Officer Tom Rowell said: “This event is a fabulous innovation, it brings variety to our tour and helps give our four women professional players the chance to shine on the big stage. This is a great opportunity for fans to see the biggest names playing in an exciting format, and also for families to come along and introduce children to snooker.”
