Kyren Wilson is the number one snooker player in the world. He has been able, despite not being as spectacular in recent years to earn four major ranking titles, two of which were Triple Crown events. He has also been successful in saving a lot of money.

Kyren Wilson started his career as an amateur. Even at the tender age of six, his talents were already surprising his parents. But, it wasn’t until he had his first significant performance at Shanghai Masters in 2015 that the professional snooker star was born. After a year of playing amateur competitions, he earned his shot at the top table of the snooker world.

Although he's had plenty of success in his short career, the real prize was not won until he secured his place in the main stage of the ranking event. He beat Marcus Campbell in his qualifying round and then defeated Stephen Maguire (and Marco Fu) in the subsequent rounds. Despite his impressive performance, he was eliminated in the quarterfinals by Michael Holt. It was an experience he will remember for a long while.
