LONDON: The partnership World Snooker signed with UK-based India Business Group (IBG) last November "to help expand the cue sport's global footprint, with particular focus on the Indian market" is not going quite according to plan.
The sport's world governing body has announced that the Indian Open world ranking event has been postponed. The tournament was due to take place from March 24 to 28.
"We have worked closely with our partners in India to try to find a suitable host city for the event, but without success," World Snooker stated.
