The 2020 Tour Championship was moved in both date and location due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Matches were also shortened with all matches being either best-of-17 or best-of-19 frame matches. It was originally organised to be played from 17 to 22 March 2020 but on the morning of the first day, it was postponed. On 5 June 2020, the tournament was rescheduled to be held between 20 and 26 June 2020 and moved to a different venue, the Marshall Arena in Milton Keynes, England. Due to the pandemic, Ding Junhui was unable to participate, and was replaced by Stephen Maguire. Maguire reached the final, where he defeated Mark Allen 10-6 in the final, to win his first ranking title since the 2013 Welsh Open.
