"He becomes the first snooker player in 13 years to win a ranking tournament since Ding Junhui in 2006"

[edit]

In the top section, it states, "He becomes the first snooker player in 13 years to win a ranking tournament since Ding Junhui in 2006". This is obviously false. The intent might be, "He becomes the first Chinese snooker player...", or "He becomes the first U20 snooker player...", but I can't verify either. --Atkinson (talk) 03:32, 6 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Nickname

[edit]

I see no problem with his nickname being "The Chinese Tiger" as previously stated in reliable sources, inc. WST. Some sources call him just "The Tiger" and it's looking like maybe the "Chinese" bit is gradually being dropped as he becomes more prominent. I checked with WPBSA this morning and their response was that they had seen both versions of his nickname but would adjust it to The Tiger on his profile page to reflect the name currently used by WST. See WST profile & WPBSA profile. I also got them to correct his Masters win as it said he was the 2020 Masters Champion up until about an hour ago!
