Q School is an annual event where amateurs get the chance to qualify for the main tour. There are three events, which run back to back and the four winners of each quarter in each event win a two-year tour card to play as a professional on the circuit. This year there is also four places available to the 'best four' players who didn't qualify over the course of the three events.

In this blog, I will be posting the four players who qualified from the first event.

Today the Q School event started in Burton, England. Over 200 players playing for 12 two-year tour cards. There are three events over the next 18 days with 4 cards on offer in each for the winner of each Quarter. Here I will be posting daily updates from the event highlighting the winners and losers and major talking points. Good luck to all the players.

This means that there is a great opportunity for anyone who goes on a good run, to qualify for the Players Championship Grand Finals and/or grab themselves a spot on the main tour for the next two seasons.

Often when the Asian Tour events come around, there a lot of local names in the draw that ma...

Hi all, first of all, welcome to my new blog!

After the World Championship, I said that there will be some new features coming soon but I have since been busy so have only had time to do my regular updates.

As you might have guessed, a blog is one of the new features on my site. I will be posting blogs every now...
