"2019 Riga Masters" vs "2019 Kaspersky Riga Masters" vs "2019 Kaspersky Lab"... needs alignment and consistency (and explanation).

"withdraw from qualifying round matches " well, I guess it's worth noting they therefore could participate at all.

" Arēna Rīga " is not mentioned outside the lead/infobox.
- added to prose. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 08:16, 18 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
WPBSA as organisers isn't mentioned outside the infobox.

Mention highest break in the lead per other such articles.

Check other recent GAs, lead is a little light, do we include prize money? Definitely need to include Kaspersky (Lab) explanation there too.

" The event had no top-20 players reach the quarter-finals." -> "No players from the top 20 in the world reached the quarter-finals"?

Reverse first two sentences of Format.

"where matches played " were.

No need to relink Joyce in the second image caption (or even repeat his first name I suppose).

Link World Snooker. And if it was organised by WPBSA, what does World Snooker have to do with it?
- Question: WPBSA are the governing body, whilst World Snooker are the administrative arm for snooker. I have no idea which of these would be considered the official "organiser". I actually thought it was just a re-branding to be honest, but they are two legally different companies. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 08:16, 18 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  - Ok, fair enough, just curious. The Rambling Man (Staying alive since 2005!) 07:41, 19 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
"The round of 64 match" -> "The round-of-64 match"

"was not held due to both players" replace "due to" with "as"

"a second-round bye." I've always preferred to reduce ambiguity, do you mean "a bye into the second round" or "a bye into the third round"?

"2018 runner-up Jack..." avoid starting with a number.

"before losing to Mark Joyce." ref?
- Done Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 08:16, 18 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
"After the round of 16, all eight players remaining had world rankings below 20." weird phrasing. "No player qualifying for the quarter-finals was ranked in the top 20 in the world" or similar?

", the final day of the event." self-explanatory if the final was played that day.

" thus reaching " no need for thus.

"missed a routine yellow," somewhat POV to describe a yellow as "routine", if it's a quote, quote it.

"Certain players had " just say how many!
- Not done I can't. There's some ambiguity as to if Duane Jones and Harvey Chandler missed the event due to flight issues, or other reasons. [1] Sources just say "certain players" or, because of the "amount of players". There were 15 withdrawals in the competition, but I can't say how many were due to the flight complications. Robertson said "about 10". Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 08:16, 18 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  - No worries, I had thought that might be the case after I finished the review...! The Rambling Man (Staying alive since 2005!) 07:41, 19 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Probably need w/d and w/o explained.
- indeed. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 08:16, 18 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Referee Tatiana should be mentioned in the prose, not just the summary table.
- Done Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 08:16, 18 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
"Arēna Rīga" in the summary table is redirect, the other versions in the article aren't redirects (it's the diacritics).

Three things outstanding, rest is done. Thanks for your help TRM. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 08:16, 18 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

All good, happy to promote now. I made a minor change (the sponsorship was covered twice in consecutive sentences with different names!), but otherwise I'm happy with all the above. The Rambling Man (Staying alive since 2005!) 07:43, 19 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
