The 2018 Champion of Champions (officially the 2018 ManBetX Champion of Champions) was a professional non- ranking snooker tournament which took place from 5 to 11 November 2018 at the Ricoh Arena in Coventry, England. [1]
Shaun Murphy was the defending champion, but lost 3–6 in the semi-finals to Ronnie O'Sullivan in a repeat of the final of the previous edition of the tournament.
Ronnie O'Sullivan defeated Kyren Wilson 10–9 in the final to capture his third Champion of Champions title. [2]
The breakdown of prize money for 2018 is shown below:
Qualification for the 2018 Champion of Champions tournament was determined by the winners of (at most) 26 tournaments over a one-year period, from the 2017 Champion of Champions to the 2018 International Championship, thereby including tournaments from both the 2017/2018 and 2018/2019 snooker seasons. The winners of the first 16 tournaments on the list were guaranteed qualification. The winners of the next tournaments on the list – in the order shown in the table – would also take a place in the Champion of Champions if other players would win more than one of the tournaments higher on the list. [1]
In case less than 16 different tournament winners qualified, the remaining spots would be awarded based on the world rankings after the 2018 English Open. [3]
