💨 Abstract

Barry Hearn, president of Matchroom Sport, has announced that the Crucible, the current host venue for the World Snooker Championship, will no longer be suitable beyond 2027 due to its small capacity and outdated facilities. Hearn desires improved facilities and increased prize money to match the growth of snooker's global appeal, with Saudi Arabia and China hosting more high-profile events.
