June 22, 2025LIVE SNOOKER 25-26! Confusion over broadcasting on day one of seasonSnooker is back! We may have just had the longest day in the Northern Hemisphere. In the UK, it feels like living in an oven. But nothing can stop the beautiful table game bursting back into our lives.Fans have been frustrated on day one of the new season however by confusion over broadcasting arrangements. I can now tell you that the action from the Wuhan Open qualifiers is on the WST Play service.I'm going to both sides this one. It's not very impressive frankly. It should be smoother when this. When events are advertised as being on one platform, fans are entitled to expect it being on there. However, let's remember the bigger picture and how lucky we are as snooker lovers to be able to see so much action.There's some bonus commentary for you here from a black ball finish and I get my beloved vidiprinter out.
