Fans worldwide will be able to enjoy live coverage of the new Riyadh Season World Masters Of Snooker this week through DAZN’s freemium channels and services.
The event runs from Monday to Wednesday (March 4-6) and matches will include a unique new concept, a 23rd ball known as the Riyadh Season ball.
This gold ball will be worth 20 points and can only be potted once all other balls have been successfully cleared from the table if a player is on a maximum break to make it 167.
Alongside the Riyadh Season World Masters of Snooker, DAZN will be broadcasting Knockout Chaos, Anthony Joshua vs Francis Ngannou on Friday 8 March.
In the UK and Ireland, the snooker will be broadcast across Eurosport, discovery+* and Eurosport App. This new agreement adds to Eurosport's comprehensive snooker rights portfolio, holding pan-European broadcast agreements for 20 World Tour events, including all three Triple Crown tournaments: The World Championship, Masters and UK Championship.
WST Chairman Steve Dawson said: “We are delighted to give all fans across the world the chance to watch this event with extensive live coverage with our many broadcast partners including DAZN and Eurosport.
“This is an exciting new event and this will be enhanced by innovative production and presentation. It will be three days of fabulous viewing for the fans as the world’s best compete for a new trophy.”
