The 2023 Players Championship (officially the 2023 Duelbits Players Championship[1]) is a professional snooker tournament that is taking place from 20 to 26 February 2023 at Aldersley Leisure Village in Wolverhampton, England. The 12th ranking event of the 2022–23 season, it is the second event in the Players Series, following the World Grand Prix and preceding the Tour Championship.[2] Featuring the top 16 players on the one-year ranking list as it stood after the 2023 Welsh Open, the event is being broadcast by ITV4 in the United Kingdom, by Eurosport in Europe, and by multiple other broadcasters internationally.[3] The winner will receive £125,000 from a total prize fund of £385,000.

Neil Robertson won the 2022 event, defeating Barry Hawkins 10–5 in the final,[4] but was unable to defend the title as he was ranked 20th on the one-year list at the cutoff.[5]
