The WWS world rankings operate on a rolling two-year basis, with points earned during the 2024/25 season to replace those earned through the 2022/23 campaign. At this revision pointts from the 2023 British Open and the 2023 World Championship have been removed and those earned at the 2025 World Championship have been added.

The total rankings points of each player are calculated from their best 14 results during the current counting period.

Bai Up to Third

World champion Bai Yulu is up to a career-best equal position of number three after she lifted the Mandy Fisher Trophy for second time in her career last week.

The victory saw the Chinese superstar improve upon her runner-up finish to Baipat Siripaporn at the 2023 event to overtake 12-time world champion Reanne Evans, who lost at the last 16 while defending semi-final points from two years ago.

There is some consolation for Evans, however, as her performances over the past two years have been strong enough to ensure that Englishwoman will claim the second qualifying place on the professional World Snooker Tour, as the highest ranked player not previously qualified for next season.

There is no change at the top, with Thailand’s Mink Nutcharut having finished as season-end number one for the second time in her career following her fourth final appearance at the World Women’s Snooker Championship.

Both Nutcharut and second placed Ng On Yee have increased their points totals, having both improved upon their results at the 2023 World Championship tournaments.

The Top 10

India’s Anupama Ramachandran has reached a new career-high position of number six after the 23-year-old reached the quarter-finals for the second successive year in Dongguan Changping. Her rise is reward for a strong season which saw her reach her first final at last year’s US Open, as well as the semi-final of the Belgian Open and a further two quarter-finals.

Compatriot Amee Kamani – who became only the 18th player to have compiled a century break on the WWS Tour during the event – has also broken into the world’s top 10 for the first time after she reached the last eight at the World Championship for the first time to gain three places.

Elsewhere in the top ten, English duo Mary Talbot and Tessa Davidson have each gained one position at the expense of Thailand’s Baipat Siripaporn, who minimised her potential drop – following the removal of maximum points following her 2023 triumph – by reaching the semi-finals two years on.

Notable Movers

Outside of the top 10, notable movers include Australia’s Jessica Woods and Katrina Wan of Hong Kong China, who both rise six positions following their runs to the knockout rounds, while China’s Xia Yuyin has vaulted 124 places up the list to a career-high of 22nd position after she reached the semi-finals for the first time on home soil.

Further significant movers include Hong Kong China’s Yuk Fan Lau (+8), Yang Meng (+9), Han Fang (+9), Deng Xin Shun (+23) and Chu Pui Ying (+4) inside of the top 50.

China’s Lu Zhao and Thailand’s Panchaya Channoi were the best performers outside of that group, each reaching the last 16 to break into the top 64 despite having only played in one tournament during the current two-year cycle.

Under-21 / Seniors

Thailand’s Narucha Phoemphul is up to a career-best second position in the Under-21 rankings but missed out on the chance to claim top spot following defeat to compatriot Phakwalan Kongkaew at the quarter-final stage in Dongguan Changping.

China’s Liu Zi Ling is up into the top 10 in seventh position after she reached the World Women’s Under-21 Championship final for the first time in her home country, while eventual champion Panchaya Channoi has jumped from 24th to ninth position after she claimed her first Tour title.

England’s Tessa Davidson has further underscored her position at the top of the Seniors rankings after she claimed the World Women’s Seniors Championship crown for the third time from the past four years.

The 56-year-old has now won nine consecutive Seniors events on the WWS Tour and is unbeaten since the 2023 UK Championship.

Behind her, Germany’s Diana Schuler is up two positions to second following her quarter-final run, while China’s Han Fang leaps 10 places to fifth after she reached the final for the second consecutive year in her home country.
