At the National Snooker Academy in Sofia, Bulgaria, Michael Holt defeated Alfie Davies 5-4 to win the sixth event of the Q Tour UK/Europe season. This victory guarantees his return to the World Snooker Tour from the start of the 2024/25 season. With three titles won from six contested so far, Holt cannot be caught in the Q Tour Rankings, with one event still to be played in Leeds next month, after his closest challenger Liam Davies fell at the quarter-final stages earlier today. Holt’s success ensures that he will return to the top table in snooker with a fresh two-year tour card from the start of next season, following an absence of two years after he was relegated at the end of the 2021/22 campaign.
