The calendar for the 2025/26 season is now available on on the WST website and on snooker.org.
Here is a “print screen” of the latter:

At the time of writing, the Players Championship doesn’t feature in this list, probably because the dates and or venue are not “decided” yet. Note that in the coming season the World Grand Prix, Players Championship and Tour Championship will not be “consecutive” events which is good. This season, because they were played consecutively, little changed in the rankings at the top and we had a few “repeat matches” which wasn’t great.
The qualifiers for the Chinese events and for the German Masters are still played in the UK. You know how I feel about that. Also there is still only one event scheduled in mainland Europe despite the successes of a significant number of mainland European young players in major amateur tournaments. You know how I feel about that too. š” There should be an “European Open” in the calendar at the very least, played in mainland Europe of course, with no qualifiers or qualifiers played at the same location right ahead of the tournament. For years, German and Austrian amateurs have been invited to the German Masters, and never made it to Berlin because they lost in qualifiers … played in the UK. There is no point inviting them if there is next to zero chance they will play in front of their own fans
Don’t ask about the “Pan American” thing… I have no clue.

The “Pan American” thing is obviously a North/South American Q-Tour event, that Igor (for example) plays in.
Well, it was great in terms of illustrating the horrendous unfairness of this series.
They should have making different draws for Players Championship and Tour Championship!
and reducing Tour Championship back to 8!
The first event should be after the first few events of the season, the second after the UK, and the last one before the WC. Or the prize money for PC and TC should not count towards rankings.
