Since 1977 the Snooker World Championship has been held every year in Sheffield's 980-seat Crucible Theatre, with an estimated 500 million spectators watching the televised broadcast across 150 countries. China's Zhao Xintong is the reigning World Snooker Champion, the first Asian player to win the title, whilst China's Bai Yulu is the reigning winner of the World Women's Snooker Championship. Snooker remains incredibly popular in China, with around 50 million people playing the game and approximately 300,000 snooker clubs, however many professional Chinese players are based in Sheffield, England as the widely-acknowledged home of the sport.
