The competition was originally planned so that four top-16 ranked players from the UK would play four Chinese players who would come through an elimination contest. Of those originally invited only Stephen Hendry took part, although four top-16 players did reach the quarter-finals along with local players.

Ali Carter, who was a last-minute replacement for Ronnie O'Sullivan, won in the final 5–3 against Marco Fu.[1]

gollark: Tower *server*, though, so I get entirely unused iLO remote access stuff and a redundant power supply I use one input of.
gollark: My laptop is a £170 (including upgrades) used businessy one with a 7th generation Intel CPU, and my server's a £100 10-year-old HP tower.
gollark: The monitoring page (https://status.osmarks.tk/) actually graphs uptime over... time... which is remarkably useless.
gollark: My server only has 20 days uptime, since I rebooted it recently, sadly.
gollark: I just *suspend to RAM* when it's not in use, so restores take a few seconds at most.
