Ronnie O'Sullivan was the defending champion, and he won his 10th Premier League Snooker title by defeating Ding Junhui 7–1.

All evenings in the league stage featured three matches: two semi-finals and a final.

This was the first and only time in the events history there would be a clear winner in each match of the league phase.

Unlike other years of the league phase when matches were best of 6 and therefore players could draw 3–3 on the night.
