The best 1984-born player of all time

I was going through list of players and I noticed that there have been barely any 1984-born players on tour, ever.
1986 has players like Mark Allen, Jimmy Robertson and Martin O'Donnell
1985 has players like Gary Wilson, Thepchaiya Un-Nooh and Matt Selt
1983 has players like Mark Selby, Kurt Maflin and Tom Ford
1982 has players like Neil Robertson, Shaun Murphy and RIcky Walden
1984 has Robert Stephen. A former European U19 Champion whose highest ranking was 82. I spent 15 minutes doing research on this and he was the most succesful 1984 birth I could find.
Why did 1984 suck so badly or have I just missed someone?

My brother was born in 84. I blame him.

Are you saying that Katy Perry, Scarlett Johansson, Lebron James, Mark Zuckerberg, Avril Lavigne and Khloé Kardashian are all failing in big snooker events ?

It is a strange statistical anomaly

To be fair, I don't remember any of those people doing well in snooker.

This guy was born in 1984, although he is better at impressions than winning matches:

That's true actually and Allan's best ranking is 75th. I guess he's the best of the class of '84.

Actually the best 1984-born player of all time was playing in the 1970s.

People were still mourning the loss of Boba Fett so no one was having sex.

My wife was born in 1984 and she is rubbish at snooker.
So you may have a point.
