The 2025 Masters snooker live stream will see champion Ronnie O’Sullivan attempt to extend his record number of titles to a scarcely believable nine, as the world’s greatest players gather in London for the first Triple Crown tournament of the year.
Even though the legendary Rocket is seeded number one, Judd Trump is looking like the man to beat at the Alexandra Palace. He’s top of the world rankings, and sealed an excellent 2024 with a UK Championship victory last month.
Also looking to get their hands on the Paul Hunter Trophy – named for the three-time winner who sadly died aged only 27 – are world champion Kyren Wilson, in-form Mark Allen, and past winners Mark Selby, Mark Williams and John Higgins.
Here’s how to watch a free Masters snooker 2025 live stream wherever you are. We’ve also listed the Masters schedule further down the page.
