What is the prize money for the 2024 Championship League Snooker Ranking Event?

Not the most glamourous of stops on the professional circuit, but the quirky event has established itself as the curtain-raiser for the new season since its inception in 2020. With only two tables in operation, it provides players exposure and matchplay opportunities following the off-season as they are guaranteed three matches in front of the cameras.

With the tournament being ranked, contestants can pick up very handy ranking points which could be crucial later in the season with Players Series event qualification and possibly tour survival at stake.

The current set-up of the World Snooker Tour sees any prize money won in an event (minus bonus prizes) effectively converted into ranking points.
