World Snooker Championship final prize moneyThe champion of this year's Crucible will bag a whopping £500,000, while the runner-up will take home a respectable £200,000. These figures remain unchanged from last year, when Wilson clinched victory against Jak Jones.
Semi-finalists who didn't make it to the showdown receive £100,000 each. Those who lost in the quarter-finals, meanwhile, have secured £50,000.
Even players who were eliminated in the first round have managed to secure a considerable sum of £10,000 each, with half of the 32-player field coming through qualifying.
World Snooker Championship bonuses and 147 prize money
Mark Allen pocketed a tidy £40,000 bonus for his maximum break in a losing effort against Chris Wakelin in the second round. Provided neither of the finalists makes a maximum, the Northern Irishman will bank an extra £5,000.
That's a third of the £15,000 highest break prize, with the other £10,000 going to Jackson Page, who made history with two 147s in one match in qualifying.
Allen's break also earned a lucky fan a windfall of £25,000, with tournament sponsors having pledged to award the prize to one spectator at random for each maximum achieved. Brian Nicholls, from Birmingham, was the fan in question.
He said: "When that last black went in... wow! It was lovely. It's unbelievable, £25,000 is a lot of money. I haven't called my wife yet because I want to surprise her with a phone call.
"I think we will go on a nice cruise and I'll share the money with my son. I love snooker and always have done but it had never entered my head before to come to the Crucible. I'll definitely come back again now."
Page, who made two maximums during his 10-2 win over Allan Taylor in the third round of qualifying before losing to Joe O'Connor in the final qualifying round, also earned a £147,000 bonus on offer for making two maximums across snooker's majors this season.
