Tournament favourite and world No1 Judd Trump kicks off his campaign against Zhou Yuelong.

O’Sullivan is aiming to win a record eighth world title – he is tied for the most tournament wins with Stephen Hendry.

It is just the second competition he will take part in since the start of the year, having taken rests to look after his mental wellbeing.

The Rocket missed the Masters and was a late withdrawal from the German Masters and the Welsh Open, while he pulled out of the Championship League after five matches.
