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 points from the 2023 Belgian Open have been removed and those earned at the 2025 WSF Women’s Championship Women’s Championship have been added.
The total rankings points of each player are calculated from their best 14 results during the current counting period.
Mink Wins, Ng Closes the Gap
A ninth career ranking event title for Mink Nutcharut ensures that the 25-year-old will remain at the head of the WWS rankings as the Tour moves on to Bruges early next month, but Ng On Yee continues to close the gap following another strong performance in Morocco.
The battle was finely poised between the former world champions heading into the New Year, with Nutcharut holding a lead of 5,500 points, but the Thai star was set to defend a maximum 7,500 points in Morocco from her win at the 2023 Belgian Open, compared to just 1,500 due to expire for Ng who reached the quarter-finals of that event.
With her dramatic 4-3 victory against Bai Yulu in the final, Mink was successfully able to defend her points from Bruges to retain top spot, while Ng has closed the gap to 4,000 points, having progressed one round further by reaching the semi-finals.
Bai Up to Third
There is a new career-high position for world champion Bai Yulu who climbs one spot to third in the updated world rankings ahead of 12-time world champion Reanne Evans.
Despite her pink ball defeat to Nutcharut in the Morocco final, her points gain of 4,875, combined with Evans losing 3,000 from her semi-final run at the 2023 Belgian Open, means that the pair trade places with just the top two now ahead of the 21-year-old Chinese player.
Having competed in just eight of the 16 currently counting events, Bai has room to continue her upward momentum, with six final appearances from her eight events contested since March 2023 underlining her positive trajectory.
Notable Movers
The only other change to the world’s top 10 sees Thailand’s Ploychompoo Laokiatphong trade places with Jamie Hunter, as although neither player was present in Morocco, Hunter had more points to defend from the corresponding event two years ago.
Among those on the move are Thailand’s Narucha Phoemphul, with the 19-year-old climbing seven places to 14th, while India’s Natasha Chethan moves up nine spots to 22nd.
Scotland’s Sophie Nix – who scored a career-best break of 56 against Bai Yulu in Morocco – equals her career-best ranking of 24th position, having also reached her first world ranking event quarter-final at the event.
Yang Meng is a new entry into the world’s top 40, after the Chinese player who made her debut at last year’s World Championship, reached her maiden quarter-final and impressed with a break of 64 during her defeat to eventual champion Mink Nutcharut.
For the first time there are now six Moroccan players who join the world ranking list, with former Tour players Hind Bennani and Yousra Matine joined by four debutants last week.
The Under-21 and Seniors ranking lists remain unchanged, with no side-tournaments held at the WSF Women’s Championship.
The WWS Tour will return next month with the Belgian Open from 7-9 February 2025 in Bruges. Entry for the event is open now via WPBSA SnookerScores.
