The British Open heads into the business end with a number of the biggest names in snooker battling it out to be crowned champion on Sunday.
The tournament is unique on the snooker calendar for using an FA Cup-style draw, meaning anyone can be drawn to face anyone in every round.
That throws up some heavyweight contests early on, as we saw with the likes of Mark Williams vs Si Jiahui and Kyren Wilson vs Chris Wakelin in the opening round.
There have been shocks early on, with Wilson falling to the increasingly impressive teenager Stan Moody the most notable ahead of the last 16.
The matches are short sprints in Cheltenham, with every round best of seven frames until the quarter-finals.
In the quarters the games extend to best of nines, then best of 11 in the semi-finals, before a best of 19 final on Sunday over two sessions.
Mark Selby is the defending champion after he beat John Higgins in last year’s final.
When is the British Open?
The event runs from September 22-28 at The Centaur in Cheltenham.
