Beijing time, September 11, the 2025 Snooker England Open will start the first round of the qualifying round at 5:00 this afternoon. The 31 professional Chinese players competed for the first time in this season, competing for the championship of this site. Simply take a look at the temporary world rankings before the English Open. (Click to follow and don't get lost)

This site will deduct the ranking bonus for the 2023 British Open. Mark Williams was the champion of that class, deducting £100,000. But Mark Williams played well last season and won the runner-up in the World Championships. Therefore, the 100,000 points deducted have not had a big impact on him, and he is still ranked fifth.

The runner-up was Mark Selby, who dropped two places to 11 places after deducting £45,000. Because Zhao Xintong had no points to be deducted, his ranking was compared with the competition master and rose to 9th place. Zhao Xintong had no points before winning the World Championships. After other players deducted their points one after another, Zhao Xintong still has room for further improvement.

Ding Junhui achieved the top 16 in the 23rd British Open, with only deducting 8,000 pounds, which has no impact on the temporary ranking. Currently ranks 7th and is still the highest ranked player among Chinese players. Xiao Guodong won the semi-finals in the 23-year British Open. The 20,000 points deducted were not very much affected and still ranked 8th.

Shawn Murphy, who fell out of the top 16 for the first time in the world after the Wuhan Open, is still ranked 17th, but the gap between Gary Wilson at the 16th place is less than £3,000. As long as you win one or two more rounds of games than Gary Wilson in this England Open, you will be able to return to the top sixteen.

Among the top 16 players, S Jiahui has not won the ranking championship, and Wakelin has won the single-time limited-time championship. During the offseason, many professionals predicted that Si Jiahui would win the championship in the new season, but in the last few games, Si Jiahui's performance and condition did not seem to be able to win the championship.

Wu Yize, who temporarily ranked 19th, wants to squeeze into the top 16 through this competition, and only win the championship can be achieved. It seems that it is very difficult. Ford and Bingham, who are behind him, are the same, at least they must win the championship. If Carter, who is 18th place, can reach the finals and Scarhui and Gary Wilson have average results, he may return to the top 16.

Currently Pang Junxu ranks 28th and still has room for improvement. Yuan Sijun, Lei Peifan and Zhou Yuelong ranked 31st, 31st and 32nd respectively, and are also guarding some seed seats in the competition. But if you perform poorly, you will fall down. I hope that all Chinese players can achieve good results in the upcoming English Open!
