Current Snooker World Ranking System and Previous Method History 

The official system of ranking professional snooker players to determine automatic qualifying and seeding for tournaments on the World Snooker Tour is the snooker world rankings. The World Professional Billiards and Snooker Association, the sport’s regulatory organization, keeps track of the rankings. The global ranking of each player is determined by their performance in designated ranking tournaments over the previous two years. After each ranking tournament, the world ranking list is updated.
