The snooker Players Championship final kicks off tonight and the latest world rankings are out. China's new brother, Zhao Xintong, must be very concerned about this title battle, because as long as Robertson wins the championship, his world ranking will rise to 7th to set a new high. Ding Junhui's ranking fell again, and the world champion Dorton dived and fell out of the TOP30.

The winner of the Players' Championship will receive £125,000 in prize money and the runner-up will receive £50,000. Robertson and Hawkins met in the Final of the Masters in January, when Hawkins collapsed when he fell behind 4-6, conceded four consecutive innings to defeat the Australian Artillery 4-10 on aggregate, and once again missed the 3-game winner. Moving to the Players Championship, Hawkins as the 16th place in a single season continued to go down the gram, overturning the top seed Zhao Xintong, the strongest 00 Yan Bingtao and the big black Maric Walton straight to the final, Robertson is even more full of firepower, the first 2 rounds have KO world 5 Karen Wilson and the world 3rd O'Sullivan, semi-final 6-1 bloodbath Jimmy Robertson, the final win is even bigger.
At present, there is no change in the top 6 of snooker in the world, O'Sullivan is still in the 3rd place in the failure to attack the world number one, Selby and Trump are in the top 2, Robertson will be 4th whether he wins the championship or not, Lugo is still in 5th place, and Higgins is 6th. If Hawkins wins the championship, the ranking will surpass Zhao Xintong, otherwise China's post-90s generation will come to the world's 7th to create a new high. Yan Bingtao continues to be in 13th place, less than 30,000 pounds ahead of Brechel in 16th place, and it is still necessary to work hard to secure a world championship seeding place and strive to break the championship drought this season.
Ding Junhui's ranking continued to fall, from 30th to 31st. At the beginning of the new year, Ding Junhui reached the semi-finals and finals in The Champions League Group 6 and Group 7 respectively, but the tournament is an invitational tournament, and the prize money earned is not counted in the ranking, and he is expected to achieve good results in the next Welsh Open qualifiers and improve the ranking. World champion Dortmund plunged from 27th to 47th; Stevens, who will finish a Grand Slam at the World Championships alone, came to the relegation zone, and it will be increasingly difficult to realize his dream in Crucible.
