Ali Carter is the 2026 English Open champion after defeating Mark Williams 9-6 in the final at Brentwood.

Williams led 5-3 after the afternoon session, but Carter turned the match around in impressive fashion. He won six of the final seven frames, completing the victory with a break of 54 to secure his first English Open title.

It was a composed comeback against one of the sport’s most experienced competitors and a memorable addition to Carter’s ranking-title record.

Faster support and iSnooker 2.0 in development

We have made improvements behind the scenes to reduce our customer support response times. If you need help with iSnooker, your account, or a purchase, we are working to make sure you receive a faster and more helpful response.

We are also excited to confirm that work is underway on a brand-new generation of the game: iSnooker 2.0 for TheSnookerClub.com.

iSnooker 2.0 will build on the original physics that made iSnooker distinctive, with further refinements and improvements. Around that trusted foundation, we are planning new features, modern AAA-quality graphics, a completely redesigned user interface, and many more improvements.

This is a major project and we are not announcing a release date yet. We will share development news, previews, and feature details as work progresses. We will also continue posting updates about improvements to the existing game.

Thank you for playing iSnooker and for continuing to support TheSnookerClub.com. We are looking forward to showing you what comes next.
