We take a look at every International Championship winner since Judd Trump reigned supreme at the inaugural staging of the event in Sichuan, China, in 2012.
Judd Trump and Mark Selby lead the way at the International Championship with both players being multiple winners of the prestigious overseas ranking event.
Trump reigned supreme in China during the competition's inaugural staging back in 2012, seeing off Neil Robertson 10-8 in a compelling final, before repeating that feat in 2019 with a more routine 10-3 success over Shaun Murphy.
Four-time Crucible conqueror Selby is the only player to have landed back-to-back titles at the International Championship, beating home hero Ding Junhui 10-1 in 2016 and then enjoying a 10-7 victory over Mark Allen 12 months later.
Allen did bounce back from his final heartbreak in 2018 however, with a 10-5 final win over Robertson, with four other players having also collected the trophy over the years.
Ricky Walden (2014) and Zhang Anda (2023) are perhaps the most surprising victors, with higher profile stars Ding (2013) and John Higgins (2015) having both also gone the full distance in the competition.
