Snooker fan.
Watched him bang in back-to-back tons against Woollaston and the UK qualifiers and look a million dollars doing it but could never have imagined he'd win a ranking event less than a month later. Unbelievable Peifan.

Don't write him off! Get in there. #snooker #ScottishOpen
Shouldn't be written off tomorrow. He can pot long balls a lot better than that and can score a lot heavier. Fights hard, does big things at big moments. Wu also facing the pressure of being favourite to win a ranking event. Can't wait. Breath of fresh air for a final.

LEI PEIFAN

Lei Peifan!!!

Another seriously impressive win for Lei Peifan. Would surely have been fuming to have gone 3-1 down in such a way but played quite excellently after that. Aggressive shot selection. No fear. Delightful. #snooker #ScottishOpen

Lei Peifan with another good win. Improving fast. #snooker

Big things coming for Antoni Kowalski. Talent and confidence. #snooker

No Mark Williams, Dominic Dale, or Ken Doherty this year, I notice (on top of the usual suspects missing). Williams and Dale two "Shoot Out specialists" if there is such a thing and crowd pleasers. Feels a bit thin on the ground.

Just can't work Ding out sometimes. Started so well. Long game is what it is but his cue ball looked good early on and now everything has disintegrated. He's been steelier of late but nowhere to be seen today. #snooker #UKChampionship

Off to Leicester for Judgement Day. Looking forward to seeing Bai Yulu this evening. #snooker #UKChampionship

BAI YULU!!!

Rory Thor is much improved. Hope he keeps his tour card.

I know you can "verify by domain" on #Bluesky, but a classic verification system is surely the best for accessibility, even if that does mean some centralisation. Would think things need to be as simple as possible if this place is going to take off.

Mark Williams always takes some stopping if he's still there at the weekend. Another age-defying victory and the hottest player of the Class of 92 right now. And with a new cue to boot. #snooker

Another excellent win for Bai Yulu. Hopefully she can settle into the tour now. Looks dangerous and her fluent, attacking approach is the best-suited to the main tour that I have seen among the women. A natural talent. Exciting stuff. #snooker #UKChampionship

Saturday morning watching the first round of the UK qualifiers. This is the life.

Pleased to see Xiao Guodong doing well. Enjoyed this piece on him from a few months ago.

Xiao on challenges Chinese snooker players face in UK: 'It's a different world'
'When I first came here I could only say "ok" and "thank you", it's hard to live.'

No clue how much I will use this. I'm more of a reader than a talker on social media nowadays. But curious to see how much of the conversation has moved here. More activity here than I had anticipated.
