Below you can find the top 5 favourites of the 2025 Tour Championship with some details about their perspectives to win the tournament.
Judd Trump
The Ace in the Pack is the leader of both world and season rankings, having a huge advantage over his opponents. Judd has won three major tournaments this season, namely Shanghai Masters, Saudi Arabian Masters and UK Championship. He has already gained over a million pounds of prize money and made 92 centuries this season. For example, Mark Selby, the one who follows Trump, only has 60 centuries. Judd Trump is the only player to win 6 ranking events in a season (2019//2020). He also won 5 tournaments per season on several occasions. Judd Trump is about to repeat his own incredible record by making over 100 centuries in a season. Only him and Neil Robertson have ever managed to do so, and Trump can do it for the second time in his career.
Judd Trump currently has 30 titles and still has a perfect chance to beat Ronnie O’Sullivan’s record, who has 41 titles won in his career. Judd Trump is currently 35 and he has about 10 years to win as many titles as possible. However, Trump has failed to even reach the final of the Tour Championship in all six years that this event has been held. He lost semi-finals twice and quarter-finals on three occasions. He even failed to get to top 8 in the 2022/2023 season. Currently, Judd Trump is almost free from having a weak point. Only a wrong mental focus can be a problem for Judd Trump. He has played against Kyren WIlson in late stages of tournaments a lot recently. Exactly these two players are the leaders in the number of the tournaments won in the 2024/2025 season. Judd Trump is the main favourite to win the 2025 Tour Championship at the odds of
3/2
Kyren Wilson
The Warrior has had a brilliant season, having won the World Championship. He’s a bright star among those who get the key title in the snooker world for the first time. Usually, a player lacks motivation for the other tournaments after winning the World Championship. The world ranking leaders tend to play poorly in this case. We saw it in 2015 with Stuart Bingham. The brightest example is Luca Brecel, who completely failed the 2022/2023 season. However, Kyren Wilson shows that his title only fuels his passion to win more. Four victories in the ranking events this season prove it. He won Xi’an Grand-Prix, German Masters, Northern Ireland Open and Players Championship. In three out of those 4 finals he beat Judd Trump.
Kyren Wilson used to play in a different manner against Judd Trump before winning the World Champion title. He seemed to lack an inner core to suppress the attacking style of Trump. Now, Wilson is perfect in his defending style. This is exactly the case when a single big title can pave the way to future achievements. He has already won four finals out of possible and he’s approaching the key event in perfect form. Probably, he can break the curse of the Crucible and become the first new champion to defend the title.
Neil Robertson
The Thunder from Down-Under is the only player to win the Tour Championship twice (in 2021 and 2022). He is the most successful snooker player outside the United Kingdom. Robertson has 25 titles, including all tournaments of the Triple Crown. The Australian was the world ranking leader in 2015. Currently, he’s 10th. Neil is still one of the key favourites of the Tour Championship. Neil used to be the only player to win at least one tournament in a year. However, this series ended last year.
Neil Robertson currently has 980 century breaks on his record. He’s definitely to become the fourth player to reach 1000 centuries along with Ronnie O’Sullivan, Judd Trump and John Higgins. This season, Neil has won the English Open and World Grand-Prix. He’s almost in the same form that was victorious several years ago. He knows how to win the Tour Championship. He has already made it twice. He beat Ronnie O’Sullivan 10-4 in 2021 and John Higgins 10-9 in 2022.
Robertson is successful in the Players Series tournaments. He won the first one, reached the semi-finals in the second tournament and he has a good chance to perform well on the third occasion.
Mark Selby
The Jester from Leicester is currently sixth in the season ranking. He has won three tournaments, namely Championship League, British Open and Welsh Open. Mark Selby is the second most successful player in centuries after Judd Trump. Selby has 60 centuries. Selby is currently third in the World Ranking, however he was the leader from 2011 to 2019. That was the period when Mark Selby won three World Champion titles and played extremely well. He had a perfect balance of attacking and defending style. He was the example for many players to sharpen their tactical skills. Many experts believe that Mark Selby has changed snooker and the minds of many players.
Mark couldn’t focus on snooker for quite some time as he was trying to deal with his mental issues, working with a psychologist. During that period, he often lost games against players from the bottom part of the ranking. After that he was supporting his wife who was struggling with a tough disease. Even despite those factors, Mark Selby managed to win some tournaments, gaining even more respect. He failed to win a ranking event last year. However, this season he has already won the British Open and Welsh Open.
Shaun Murphy
The Magician is currently 11th in the World Ranking and 8th in the season one. He has 12 titles. After winning the Masters in 2015 he’s among the Triple Crown winners. Murphy is one of the brightest snooker players. He sensationally won the 2005 World Championship, having become only the second champion to win the title starting from the qualifying games. He played in the World Championship finals twice after that but failed to succeed again. The last time Shaun Murphy won a ranking event was in 2023 at the Players Championship and the Tour Championship with the Championship League. After that, Shaun failed to even reach a semi-final game of a ranking tournament.
This season, however, Murphy has reached semi-finals of the Saudi Arabian Masters and World Grand-Prix. He won a tournament of the Triple Crown for the first time in ten years, beating Kyren Wilson 10-7. Shaun Murphy has perfect snooker skills, with 709 centuries in his career and 53 century breaks this season. This is going to be the third time Murphy participates in the Tour Championship. He reached the quarter-finals in 2020 and won the tournament in 2023. Shaun’s focused on the remaining tournaments of the season, especially on the World Championship. Shaun Murphy is a dark horse of the Tour Championship.
