This website has been created to present analysis of the Professional Snooker Tour. Please note that it is not intended to be a source of snooker statistics – there are already plenty of sites out there for this purpose. Instead, I will be using analysis to explore different aspects of the ranking system and the structure of the Professional Tour.

I hope that by approaching this from a slightly different angle I will provoke further discussions about the current system. Interest in the game is growing across the world and the decisions made over the next couple of years will determine whether or not this opportunity is seized. I hope that this site will help all parties within the professional game to make informed decisions about the future of the sport.
