Prose, POV, and coverage

[edit]
Lead:
  • Para 1: It was the last of three events in the Players Series, following both the 2025 World Grand Prix and the Players Championship. - "Both" is probably not needed here The other two events are mentioned immediately after this.
  • Para 3: The final of the event produced eight century breaks, four by each player, equalling the record for the most centuries in a best-of-19-frame match, which had been set by Neil Robertson and Judd Trump in the final of the 2019 Champion of Champions. - This sentence is a bit long. I suggest splitting it up (I would split it after "four by each player", personally).
Format:
  • The event took place from 31 March to 6 April 2025 at the Manchester Central - The caption says "Manchester Central" (without "the"), but the prose says "the Manchester Central". Which is correct?
  • The World Snooker Tour (WST) announced that there was a free fan zone at the venue before the event - The phrasing is a bit confusing. If the free fan zone was before the event itself, I would say "The World Snooker Tour (WST) announced a free fan zone at the venue before the event". If only the announcement took place before the event, I would say "The World Snooker Tour (WST) announced before the event that there would be a free fan zone".
  • Scheduling for the season resulted in the three events of the Players Series being back-to-back in the calendar - Instead of "back-to-back in the calendar", I suggest something like "consecutive".
Broadcasters:
  • No issues.
Prize fund:
  • I would consider getting rid of "shown below". You could just say The breakdown of prize money for the event is: and it would still make sense. (Also, technically blind readers wouldn't be able to "see below", so I guess this would improve accessibility as well.)
Seeding list:
  • Same thing as above regarding "shown below".
More in a bit. – Epicgenius (talk) 02:04, 4 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
