With the successful conclusion of the Snooker Northern Ireland Open, the World Taiwan Federation also publicly released the latest world rankings of all players. Although the top 16 lineup has not changed, it can be said that there are joys and worries for some players.
Best Player Ronnie O'Sullivan Although he had no intention of fighting and withdrawing from the Northern Ireland Open championship competition early, he still ranked first in the world with his huge points advantage, and the bonus points of 1007,000 are the only ones.
was expected to surpass O'Sullivan Return to the world's number one Judd Trump (853000) not only failed to go further but encountered a "Waterloo". After deducting some bonus points, the ranking was officially overturned by Neil Robertson (873500) to third place in the world.
, and the , Mark Selby , which recovered this season, continues to rank fourth in the world with (828500), and the following , John Higgins , , Mark Williams , , Karen Wilson , due to the points gap, temporarily poses no threat to the top four in the world.
Chinese teenager who won two championships last season Zhao Xintong has not been able to perform as he deserves this season, and his ranking has continued to decline to eighth place in the world (431500), and Mark Allen relies on Northern Ireland's championship to surpass Barry Hawkins rose to ninth place in the world (401500).
Chinese post-00s young player Yan Bingtao is the last player on this list to be still in top 16 except Zhao Xintong. He is currently ranked 15th in the world (244,000). For Yan Bingtao, his current position is not safe McGill , Wharton and others are all staring at this position.
Another Chinese young player, , Zhou Yuelong, although he failed to win the championship, his prize ranking has also risen to the 21st place in the world (185,500) with his 35,000 pounds . For Zhou Yuelong, who has got rid of the inner demons, he will do his best to reach the top 16 in the world.
In addition to Zhao Xintong, Yan Bingtao and Zhou Yuelong, the Chinese Snooker Legion also has Luning ranked 29th in the world on the top32 list (142000), Xiao Guodong , Lu Haotian and Fan Zhengyi are ranked 34th, 36th and 37th respectively.
The most anticipated and disappointed Ding Junhui's ranking has dropped to 38th again. Not only is it getting farther and farther away from top16, now returning to top32 has also become a huge problem. This ranking has also set a record for Ding Junhui's worst in the past decade.
In this way, only four Chinese snooker teams have made it to the top32 list in the world. This result can be said to be mixed. I hope that in the next game, Chinese players can continue to work hard to see more of their own players break into top32 or even top16.
