Murray will be joined in the studio by 1992 UK champion Jimmy white and Neil Foulds with Ronnie O’Sullivan providing analysis in between matches as he attempts to win the title for a sixth time.

This tournament is the sport's second-biggest ranking event with a history dating back to 1977 and a top prize of £150,000. The likes of Steve Davis and Stephen Hendry have had their names on the trophy for this prestigious event. Davis, who has claimed six titles, is the most successful player in the tournaments history, ahead of Hendry and O’Sullivan who have won five apiece.

It was Australian Robertson who claimed an impressive victory at last year’s tournament, beating outsider Liang Wenbo in the final. It was Robertson’s 11th win at a ranking event.
