I think this is Robert Milkins. BUT, I hear you cry, the Milkman is a right hander, surely? Well, 2 theories to go with this

1. Sometimes photographs get reversed, and what you see is a mirror image

2. Or, was he ambidextrous as a youngster, but decided the right hand was his stronger so 'switched hands'?

Thats what I think anyway.

Great thread though.

These was the 2013 World Amateur Chinese team, so not that long ago - they were all teenagers. Left-to-right:

Lu Ning, Wang Yuchen, Niu Zhuang, Yuan Sijun, Zhang Yong, Zhao Xintong, Zhu Yinghui, Zhou Yuelong, Fang Xiongman, Lin Shuai, Wang Zepeng.

That's 8/11 became professionals, and the other three were very close (one or two matches away from turning pro). There are many amazing pictures like that on the CBSA website. Who's says the 'Class of 92' can't happen again...?

For me, it's quite a sad picture, for a couple of reasons I've mentioned before.

OK a clue in the baby question:

Last year the father postponed his honeymoon so he could play in a tournament, which he won!

Yes, Lin Shuai and Wang Zepeng came close in Q School last year. Zhu Yinghui, a promising Mongolian, reached the final of the Asian U21, but his career was ended shortly after this picture was taken, due to an unfortunate incident.

Yes. He's had a difficult time, with his wife heavily pregnant and hospitals closed in China. Most likely he will be relegated, which could be the end of his career.


By my calculation, that baby was probably conceived the very night they got married! But I suppose you'd expect a snooker player to hit the target first time...

You've got me intrigued about what happened to Zhu Yinghui. He was doing well until 2013/14 then dropped off the map. I've done a bit of searching online but can't find much.
He didn't post anything on Weibo after May 25 2013, but then suddenly reappeared last month, with a couple of posts, including a photo. He looks fine in the pic, and had an exchange with WST, which commented that he doesn't look any different. He replied that he looks older.
