The 2012/2013 season was made up of 99 professional players. The top 64 players after the 2012 World Championships automatically qualified for the 2012/2013 season as did the top eight who were not in the top 64 from the Players Tour Championship Order of Merit. Another twelve places were available through Q School; the rest of the places on to the tour came from amateur events and national governing body nominations. All players except those in the top 64 received a tour card for two seasons. Listed below are the players who qualified for the 2012/2013 and &lt;a href="Snooker%20season%202013/2014"&gt;2013/2014 season&lt;/a&gt;.
