The Nescafé Extra Challenge was a non-ranking snooker tournament held in Bangkok, Thailand for two editions with a year's break in between. It involved four players playing each other on a round-robin format with the winner decided on a league basis.[1]

The first tournament was played in 1991, with Joe Johnson taking the title by winning all three of his matches.[2] The event was not played the following season, but returned in 1993, with Ronnie O'Sullivan winning the tournament and collecting his first professional title.[1]
