Distribution of 130 professional snooker players: China ranked second with 22 players, and the United Kingdom ranked first
Recently, the official website of World Snooker WST announced the distribution of the nationality of professional players this season. This article has been slightly tweaked to combine the four regions of the UK into one national statistics. 130 professional players from 17 countries, including 80 in the United Kingdom, and China in second place with 22 players. The details are as follows:
It should be noted that the list of professional players announced by WST this time, including the list of professional players previously announced this season, has deleted four banned Chinese players. After the removal of these four players, there was an issue involved, which was the world ranking.
At present, the latest world ranking on WST's official website is still the world ranking after the World Championship, which also retains four suspended players, as well as players who have been relegated at the end of the season. The latest world rankings on snookerorg, a well-known snookerorg, have stripped out four suspended players and included new professionals. According to Snookerorg's ranking, Ding Junhui's world ranking has risen to 16th.
Of course, the official world ranking still has to be according to the official website of World Snooker, and the official website to update the world ranking will have to wait until the end of the Champions League (ranking version) in late July. Although Ding Junhui did not participate in the Champions League, due to the low prize money of the Champions League, the follow-up chasers, some did not register, some were out, and some had a large gap, when Ding Junhui's world ranking will return to the top 16, of course, the premise is that the official website ranking will delete four banned players.
