Overall:
Pass/Fail:

"It was the fourth ranking event of the 2019–20 snooker season and the first event of the 2019 Home Nations Series." - repetition of "event"
"In the event's semi finals, Mark Selby defeated Mark Allen, and David Gilbert defeated Tom Ford to reach the final." - repetition of "defeated"
"71 century breaks were made during the tournament." - don't begin with a number
Wikilink deciding frame to the relevant frame for non-snooker readers
- Done all. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 11:14, 6 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

"The event was the fourth ranking event of the 2019–20 snooker season, and the first of four Home Nations Series events." - repetition of "event(s)"
The World Snooker source that is attached to this info does not state any of the above so another reliable source is needed to verify all this information
"Chinese sports prediction website 19.com sponsored the event[6] which" a comma is missing before the reference
"was broadcast in domestically by Quest; in Europe by Eurosport;" - this sentence is not gramatically correct; can be was broadcast by Quest in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland; Eurosport in Europe;
The Thai and Canadian broadcasters of the event is mentioned in World Snooker and that can be included here
- Done all Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 11:15, 6 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Entire section is unreferenced and will need to be verified by a reliable source(s) stating all the information contained herein
- added a cite. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 11:15, 6 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Please add the dates of the earlier rounds for completeness and clarification
"Tom Ford, seeded 24, completed 4–0 wins over Peter Lines and Lu Ning before defeating Kyren Wilson 4–2." - needs to be verified by a reliable source
"Ford completed a whitewash over Tian." - clarify this was a 5–0 whitewash
Wikilink the terms pot and frames to the relevant articles only on the first mention
"Selby won the last three frames to win the match 6–5." - repetition of wo(i)n"
The terms sessions, breaks and century breaks can be wikilinked to their relevant articles only on the first mention in the final paragraph
"This was the 16th career ranking win for Selby.[20][21]" - The Sporting Life reference can't be used to verify this claim since it does not mention it so it will need to be removed and let the BBC Sport reference verify it which it does
The same Sporting Life reference can be used to expand coverage of the final where possible
- Frame was already linked, otherwise done. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 11:15, 6 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Reference 4's and Reference 22's publishers should be in the work field for consistency
SportingLife should be referred to as either Sporting Life or sportinglife.co.uk all round not have a mix of the two
Similarly the WST sources should be either referred to as worldsnooker.com or World Snooker and not have a mix of the two
Similarly all Eurosport should be known as either Eurosport or Eurosport UK not a mix of the two
Reference 5 is linked to the 2019 Northern Ireland Open and not the 2019 English Open and has the wrong title name
References 1, 2 and 8 to 19 are missing their publication dates
References 10, 11, 14 and 21 are missing the author(s)
The archive link for Reference 22 mentions only three century breaks but the one at the end of this sentence does: [1]

  - @Lee Vilenski: There are still some references which are not fully complete with missing authors and publication dates MWright96 (talk) 16:54, 6 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    - That should be all of them now. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 09:44, 8 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
