Evans Joins White, Doherty and Perry in Derby
Reanne Evans is the latest player to be added to the star-studded line up for the 2026 British Seniors Snooker Open at Vaillant Live in Derby on 27-28 December.
The record 12-time World Women’s Snooker champion made her World Seniors Snooker debut at the Crucible Theatre in May and reached her 13th World Women’s Championship final in China later in the same month.
Evans, who currently competes on the World Snooker Tour, joins four-time World Seniors champion Jimmy White, 1997 world champion Ken Doherty and defending British Open champion Joe Perry as the names already announced for December’s two-day event.
Mike Dunn, Director of World Seniors Snooker, said: “It is a privilege to have 12-time world champion Reanne Evans in our event. She is a player that has dominated the women’s game for such a long time and someone who has inspired women and girls all around the world to pick up a cue.”
The rest of the eight-player line-up will be announced in due course with more big names still to be added.
