The 2014 Players Tour Championship Grand Final (officially the 2014 Wyldecrest Parks Players Tour Championship Grand Final)[1] was a professional ranking snooker tournament that took place between 25 and 29 March 2014 at the Guild Hall in Preston, England. It was the tenth ranking event of the 2013/2014 season.[2]

It was originally planned, that the event would take place in Bangkok, Thailand,[3] but due to the political unrest in the country the World Professional Billiards and Snooker Association decided to relocate the event.[4] This was the first professional tournament at the Guild Hall since the 2005 Grand Prix.[5]

Ding Junhui was the defending champion,[6] but he lost 3–4 against Ben Woollaston in the last 32.[7]

Barry Hawkins won his second ranking title by defeating Gerard Greene 4–0 in the final.[8] This was Greene's first ranking final.[9]
