Following the conclusion of Q School and the qualifying events for the Wuxi Classic and Australian Goldfields Open, there are still another couple of weeks to go until professional snooker returns to our screens with the venue stages of Wuxi towards the end of the month.
That said, there have been a number of smaller news stories to come out during the last few days, so click below for a round-up of what you need to know…
Joe Perry was crowned the 2013 Pink Ribbon Champion, after a high quality 4-3 win over Barry Hawkins in the final.
After five days of play, featuring 328 players, Joe Perry lifted the magnificent Pink Ribbon Trophy at South West snooker Academy.
Congratulations to Stuart Bingham who tonight hit two centuries during a 4-0 win against Peter Lines to become the third winner of the Pink Ribbon tournament at the South West Snooker Academy in Gloucester. Having previously hit another two tons during his semi-final victory against rival Mark Allen, it is clear that Stuart was a deserving winner of the event and will be hoping to carry that form into the season-opening Wuxi Classic.
