The General Cup is a professional non-ranking snooker tournament held at the General Snooker Club in Hong Kong. Established in 2004 under the "General Cup International" name, the tournament was contested only intermittently, with the most recent event held in 2014. The field comprised mostly professional players and several top Far Eastern amateurs, except in 2013 only professionals were invited. In 2014 there were eight professionals and a wildcard player. In the early rounds, the field of competition is divided into groups with the players in each group playing each other in a round-robin format, followed by knock-out stages. The reigning champion is Marco Fu.
