Is it my imagination or is there a lot more sponsorship this year. Is Barry Hearn "doing the business" for the players or are they doing deals for themselves?
Ronnie has a deal with a coffe company. 147.coffee.com.
Judd has a BurgerKing sticker in his waistcoat.
Higgins is sponsored by STAR tables.
McGill has Litetask.
Bingham has Swiss Watches.
Hawkins has O Min
Stevens has Castelll Howell.
Allan has Northern Ireland Connections
Selby, Dott, Robbo, Ding have Chinese sponsors.
Quite a variety?
PS Murphy seems to have a teddy bear which I think is a charity.
Anyone know how this whole thing works? I assume the main sponsor BETFRED puts up the prize money and then the players do their own thing?
My gripe is I feel that some of this sponsorship money should filter down to the lower ranked players. Even a couple of grand would help a young lad pay his expenses to a PTC.
Rant over.
