BetVictor and World Snooker Tour Renew Sponsorship Agreement

Renewing their long-term collaboration designates BetVictor as the title sponsor for eight WST upcoming events throughout the 2023/24 season

The leading online gaming and entertainment operator, BetVictor, unveiled details Monday regarding a new sponsorship agreement. The company confirmed that it renewed its long-term collaboration with World Snooker Tour (WST). Under the new collaboration, BetVictor was designated as the title sponsor for a total of eight WST tournaments within the 2023/2024 season.

Similarly to previous collaborations between the duo, the culmination of the partnership will result in a significant bonus for the best snooker player. Participants in the upcoming tournaments will collect points within a leaderboard for the BetVictor Series Rankings. This will grant them a chance to secure a staggering £150,000 ($191,000) bonus prize following the last WST event planned for February.

Sam Boswell, BetVictor’s head of sponsorship, was excited about the latest collaboration with WST. He explained that the company is thrilled to continue its engagement with WST, becoming the title sponsor for eight events and announcing the popular bonus race that will award one player with a significant bonus. Finally, Boswell said: “We are looking forward to some great drama on the table over the next 12 months.

We are delighted to continue our long-standing sponsorship of Snooker with eight BetVictor titled tournaments and of course the BetVictor £150,000 bonus race, which has been incredibly popular with players since its creation in 2020.
