The immediate question is whether Jones can become the first Welshman to win the Welsh Open since Mark Williams did so for the second time in 1999. Jones starts his campaign on Tuesday with an all-Welsh tie against Matthew Stevens, with 10 Welshmen in all competing for the Ray Reardon Trophy. Williams will be there again, along with the likes of Ryan Day, Dominic Dale and amateur player Dylan Emery. 2024 winner Gary Wilson starts the defence of his title against India's Ishpreet Chadha.

The FAW say they would also guarantee Merthyr an annual payment of £250,000 over five years for competing in the Cymru Premier, plus an additional £30,000 for the 2026-27 season for any drop in attendances. There would also be £25,000 towards Merthyr's 4G pitch fund, and up to £40,000 for the installation of a new television gantry. The FAW say the total financial package is worth £5.95m.
