UK Snooker Championship 2026 LIVE: Full schedule, results and prize money as Mark Selby bids to defend title

The first of the Triple Crown events in snooker is fast approaching as the UK Championship prepares to take centre-stage in November. The 2026/27 snooker season is well underway, but the tournament in York always marks the point in which things ramp up. Mark Selby is the defending champion after beating Judd Trump 10-8 in an exciting final last year. It was the third time he’d lifted the trophy, and he will be one of the favourites again. But he won’t be the only one with Trump also likely to be in contention along with Ronnie O’Sullivan .
