Hallworth and Rory McLeod are the only ones that come to mind.
Not these days, I always thought it could prove a hindrance when cueing but there were quite a few back in the day :
Alain Robidoux
John Bear
Peter Francisco
John Virgo
Anthony Hamilton
Spring to mind.
Add Jackson Page and Jamie Clarke to the modern day list, and Mark Williams’ effort last year is well worth a mention too.
Now, moustaches - that’s a different matter; plenty to choose from there!

Michael White also often has a beard. Selby obviously has his designer stubble. Kyren alternates having/not having facial hair. Allen has a beard usually. McGill had one for a while. Jimmy Robertson has/has had one. Oliver Lines has had one. Hendry often has one these days.

Oh yes, McGill.
Some you mentioned I don't count as proper beards. Like Kyren.

These two muppets finally get to 2-2.
They'll still be playing by the Turkish Masters next year.

Jackson Page must have some sort of rapid ageing disease, he had a beard when he was 14 and I think he looks mid-30s now. Give it another ten years he'll look as old as Leo.
