The World Snooker Championship draw has been made and the top 16 now know who they will face at the Crucible.
The main event gets underway on Saturday morning, the start of 17 days of action at the iconic Sheffield theatre, with the champion being crowned on May 4.
The tournament has already been going since April 8 when the qualifying process began at the English Institute of Sport.
The 16 qualifiers have emerged from that gruelling process and have now learned which elite star they will take on at the famous home of the World Championship.
