Kyren Wilson is undoubtedly one of the top snooker players worldwide. 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 capable of saving a lot.
Kyren Wilson began his professional career as an amateur. His talent began at six years of age and was already a surprise to his parents. He became a pro snooker star in 2015 when he gave his first outstanding performance at Shanghai Masters. After one year of playing in amateur competitions, he finally earned his spot at the top of the snooker league.
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. In his first qualifying round, Marcus Campbell defeated him. He then beat Stephen Maguire in the next two rounds. Despite his impressive performance, he was eliminated in the quarterfinals by Michael Holt. However, it was a performance he will be able to remember for a very long time.
The biggest achievement of Kyren's career has been his win at the German Masters in 2018. Despite a fierce challenge from David Gilbert, he won. He also won title at Paul Hunter Classic. Having reached the finals of the previous three major ranking events, he's been able to secure his place in the top tier of snooker for the foreseeable future.
