LG Corporation signed a sponsorship agreement with World Snooker, and the seven world ranking events before the World Championship were branded as the "LG Electronics Tour".[1] These tournaments carried conventional ranking points but also had a separate points system, with a £50,000 prize for the player who accumulated the most points during the LG Electronics Tour. Ronnie O'Sullivan was the eventual winner of the cash prize, but both the sponsorship and format would only last for one season.[2]
