Zhao Xintong vs Mark Williams

Mark Williams is a player who had been there and done it when it comes to Snooker and that includes winning all that there is to win in the sport.

The ‘Welsh Potting Machine’ has been at the very top of the sport for over 3 decades, so there is little that can surprise him anymore, although the level of play of his opponent in the 2025 World Championship final.

If you missed it, that opponent was Zhao Xintong who announced himself to the world in Sheffield when he dominated everybody, he came up against to win the title despite not been full time on the tour at the time.

The next time the two face off, there will be no such surprises for Mark Williams and that should just make for an even better match up for fans of both players to watch and that is just what you can do via the services on this page.

Why You Should Watch

If you watched that 2025 final from the Crucible, you will want to watch any match up when the two combatants face off as it was such an incredibly occasion and spectacle.

Even if you missed that match but you are a fan of the sport, you will have heard all about it and you will want to watch their matches as you know just how exciting off a match up this one could be.

For those who are fan of either Mark Williams or Zhao Xintong, or if you are Welsh or Chinese and wan to back your fellow countryman, you will also want to tune in and watch along live.

That can be tricky for Snooker fans however as the matches tend to be announced at last minute and matches can take place at any time during the day with matches often stretched out over a couple of days.

For those who are casual fans of the sport and just look out for matches when you have some spare time, this is a match up you will likely choose to especially as you will know all about the man from Cwm in the Welsh Valleys.

Finally, if you are new to the sport, this is a great game to start with as you will see the best of the last generation and the best of this generation meet head-to-head.

Where You Can Watch

For those who have been a fan of the sport for any length of time, you will know just how difficult, frustrating and often expensive it can be to watch the matches that you want to watch from the Snooker tour.

Even for a match between two players who have won the World Championship, such as this one, it can be difficult to watch along live.

More and more tournaments now take place behind a paywall and that means you need an expensive and ongoing subscription just to have a chance to watch the match you are tuning in for.

It can be the case that even on a pay to watch sports channel that has the rights to broadcast the tournament the match is set to take place in, they will not show the match you want to watch.

Sometimes it is the fault of the broadcaster, but it often can come down to the way that Snooker tournaments are setup.

Many events will have numerous matches taking place at the same time, from the same venue so the broadcaster has to often choose between matches and the one that you want to watch is not selected for broadcast.

Another big issue is that as the sport struggles for its place in the crowded UK sports tv markets, many tournaments now take place on smaller and smaller channels, often leading to fans not having any idea as to where they watch the match.

By the time they have searched for the broadcast channel and found it, they then don’t even know if they have access to it, which takes more time and if they do and then tune in, by the time they achieve it, the match can be part way through.

By that time, fans could easily have missed on the biggest talking point of the match, the best shot or the biggest miss.

Even tournaments that are broadcast on more mainstream free-to-air channels, you can still miss out on the matches that you want to watch.

It can often be the case that only a select amount of time is given to Snooker broadcasting and when that time is up, the broadcast finishes and the next programme starts.

That leads to the match you want to watch getting moved to a lesser-known channel, an online only version, the dreaded red button or at worst, the only way to watch the rest of the action is to watch a late-night highlights programme.

Thankfully, there is now a simply way for fans to pick and choose to watch the matches that they want to watch and to be able to watch the matches in their entirety and that is by using one of the incredible services found on this very page, each of which allow you to watch live Snooker all season long.

All that you need to do is choose the service that works the best for you.
