Mei Xi Wen?

Eleventh/eleven = XI in Roman Numerals, and the “time” you arrive would be when/“Wen” you arrive

Well, you got it and you got it for the right reasons. It was similar to Chengdufan's recent Hidden Taste puzzle.

I wouldn’t have thought you’d pick a lower-ranked current player. Have you been perusing the ranking list? <laugh>

Wow! Nobody has had a crack at this yet? I have nothing so far so I was hoping for a bit of inspiration.

I've reached a couple of players that I'm embarrassed to name, as the logic doesn't quite work. Inspired by Alf to get the ball rolling though:
Tony Drago
Ali Carter

I’m throwing Joe Johnson in as a starter.

Prize > top
Pail > bucket > pocket

Top Pocket is apparently a club in Bradford. So there’s JJ. I do not expect this to be correct <laugh>

Not Drago, Carter or Johnson

Re: 2 Word Clue

Ah. It must be Jack Lisowski.

Prize > Jackpot
Pail > Jack and Jill nursery rhyme, “went up the hill to fetch a pail of water” > Jack

Re: 2 Word Clue

It’s not Jack Lisowski
