Re: 2 Word Clue
Clue update summary for new page:
Drunken Cube
The first word relates to a famously drunken snooker player
A former pro who still competes stopped competing to be a pro in 2021
A generally lower ranked player
The player's flag is neither British nor Chinese, in fact, he's European.
It's not Kurt Maflin or Billy Ginn

It is Alex Borg!
I thought Iranu might get this one quite quick, he likes his televisual sci-fi.

I’ve just had to look up Borg. I was never really into Star Trek!

Never liked Star Trek although I do know the Borg and now am kicking myself a bit.

They’re one of the more famous Star Trek enemy races. They’re cyborgs who travel in cube shaped spaceships.
If you’ve heard the phrase “resistance is futile” that’s basically their catchphrase.

You'll have to resort to using ultra obscure references from ultra obscure TV shows and movies.
