On October 14, 2024, Beijing time, the World Snooker Tour released the latest single-season rankings. Trump continued to hold on to first place, with Kyren Wilson second and Mark Williams third.
China's Xiao Guodong jumped to fourth to become China's highest-ranked player, Si Jiahui was fifth and Neil Robertson was sixth. Murphy was seventh, Selby was eighth, and Wu Yize was ninth.
O'Sullivan is in 10th, which puts him down two places from his previous ranking. Higgins, Jimmy Robertson, Gilbert, Wakelin, Anda Zhang and Lisowski ranked 11th to 16th, while Ding Junhui soared 56 places to 88th.
Judd Trump and Wilson Williams are firmly in the top three
In the latest single-season rankings, Trump, who has performed best this season, is still firmly at the top of the list, and he is still a faulty lead. Although Trump missed the final at the Wuhan Open, he still remains in the top spot with 631,200 pounds. Moreover, in a short period of time, no one will be able to threaten his position, after all, he currently has too many points.
The player who is closely followed by Trump is the new world champion Kyren Wilson, who has also performed very well as the only player to beat Trump in the final this season. And this performance also allowed Wilson to remain in second place with 235,000 pounds of points.
But considering Mark Williams and his points gap, Wilson's current position is actually unstable. After all, Mark Williams is currently third with £223,000 in points.
Xiao Guodong surpassed Si Jiahui to become the highest-ranked player in China
The player behind Mark Williams is Xiao Guodong, and the Chinese snooker star is in fourth place with a season score of 206,000 pounds after successfully realizing his dream of winning the Wuhan Open. It is worth mentioning that Xiao Guodong's ranking has increased by eight places compared to before, and he has become the highest-ranked player in China.
Chinese teenager Si Jiahui is fifth with £188,400 and English Open champion Neil Robertson is sixth with £169,850. Murphy is seventh with £138,800 in points, keeping him in the same position as he was before.
United Kingdom Open champion Selby is eighth with £127,200, which means Selby's season has dropped three places from before. Wu Yize ranked ninth with 86,000 pounds, while O'Sullivan ranked tenth with 85,500 pounds, down two places from before.
Ding Junhui became the fastest rising snooker player
Four-time world champion John Higgins was 11th with £72,350 and Jimmy Robertson was 12th with £72,100. Gilbert is 13th with £70,750 and Wakeling, who has been a good performer at the Wuhan Open, is 14th with £70,400.
