Monday 20th of July 2020 at the English Institute Of Sport in Sheffield8 Players and only one Place on the World Snooker Tour for 2020/2021 and 2021/2022 season.
Will it be an Experiance player like Rory McLeod who first tuned pro in 1991 or one of the 5 players thats never played on the tour will triumph.
Allan Taylor who spend half the challenge tour season being a MC at the home nations having only played 5 out of 10 events but will have his chance of getting back on the main tour by winning 9 frames in this event.
Who will win?

Don't know all of them but I definitely hope that Adam Duffy does not make it. Tyler Rees would be my preferred winner.

Hopefully someone good and young will win. Others like Taylor and Mcleod have had their time on tour and not been successful. Neither them or Duffy will enhance the tour.

I Feel Oliver Brown deserves his chance on tour.
In 2014/2015 he earned almost £13,000 as a top up player he earned more than about 40 main tour pros that season, so he deserves his chance, but he still has to earn that chance.

I was very impressed when I first saw Oliver Brown, he had some good results early on as an amateur but hasn't built on it - I would have backed him to come through Q-school by now, but every year you miss out, you must get that bit more desperate...

If he gets back they will have to get a new MC. I'm sure there's a lot out of work these days.

Well, I infinitely prefer him to that idiot they have who instructs them what to call in the Shoot-Out. He's an embarrassment.
Congratulations to Allan Taylor anyway. He's a good guy to have on tour, even if not for his snooker.

So Allan Taylor is the latest player to earn a 2 year tour card
Beating Adam Duffy 4-0
he won 11 out of 12 frames to take the spot after trailing 3-1 to Oliver Brown in the Quarter Finals.

Boring. Yet another player back on the tour who has never proved themselves good enough to stay there.
8 years with a highest ranking of 75 tells its own story.
Where is the up and coming English talent that should be mopping up these tour places.

Wouldn’t it be 6 years with a high ranking of 75, if he’s earned his 7th and 8th?
I do agree with you about British talent though.
