The 2025 World Snooker Championship gets under way at the Crucible Theatre in Sheffield on Saturday, with Kyren Wilson bidding to retain his title.
The Englishman defeated Jak Jones 18–14 in the 2024 final to win his maiden world championship.
Seven-time winner Ronnie O'Sullivan, who has been struggling with health issues, has yet to decide if he will play in a 33rd consecutive edition of the tournament.
BBC Sport has comprehensive live coverage of the championship on BBC One, BBC Two, BBC Four and Red Button, while every match will be shown in full on iPlayer, the BBC Sport website and the BBC Sport app.
