The five-day event begins today and is Betway’s second major sponsorship in the sport, alongside its existing deal as title sponsor of the Betway UK Championship.
Betway marketing director Paul Adkins said: “As the title sponsor of the UK Championship, we’re delighted to be extending our involvement in the sport with the Gibraltar Open.
“Some of the world’s top players are set to clash at this year’s event and we’re very much looking forward to an exciting week of action,” he added.
World Snooker Chairman Barry Hearn added: “We are thrilled to have Betway on board for this fantastic event.
“They are a huge supporter of snooker and have also been title sponsor of the UK Championship for the last four years.
“With some top players heading out to do battle on the rock, I am certain we will see a week of enthralling action and I can’t wait for the event to get started.”
