Lead

 * "but the first in 17 years since the 2004 British Open." - and
 * "this breaks with the tradition of most ranking tournaments" - this broke with the tradition
 * The term seeded should be wikilinked to the relevant articles
 * "Higgins made his 12th maximum break in professional competition in the first frame of his first-round win over Alexander Ursenbacher, while Ali Carter made his third maximum break in professional competition in the second frame of his fourth-round match against Elliot Slessor." - repetition of the term highlighted in bold

Format

 * "The 2021 tournament is being held from 16 to 22 August 2021" - past tense please
 * "John Higgins is the defending champion," - same issue as above
 * "The event is broadcast by; ITV Sport" - character highlighted in bold is misplaced
 * ITV Sport can be wikilinked

Prize fund

 * "The tournament had a total prize fund of £470,000, with the winner receiving £100,000. This showed a £270,000 total prize money increase from the last tournament in 2004" - needs a reliable source from the ones already in the article to verify this information

Tournament summary

 * Ricky Walden and the term pot are wikilinked twice in this section and Stephen Maguire has a second wikilink that is unneeded in this section

 * "Gilbert played Wilson, and led both 2–0 and 3–2, but lost the match after missing a pot using a long rest. Slessor met Zhou Yuelong and won 4–3 to reach his second ranking event semi-final." - The source at the end of this portion of text makes no mention of these events. Another reliable source(s) is required with mentions all this information

Tournament draw

 * The first column in each of the sections should have the flagathlete templates used as you have done on several other articles

Century breaks

 * The term century breaks does not need to be linked here as an extra link
 * "Both Higgins and Carter made maximum breaks of 147 during the event. Higgins made one in the first frame of his first-round win over Ursenbacher, whilst Carter made his during the second frame of his fourth-round loss to Slessor.[13]" - The Carter maximum also needs to be verified by a reliable source in this section
