Dunno. He lost the final to David Gray; why couldn’t you have asked that?
Lol I'm sorry but I thought that would have been relatively easy. I'm sure you love a challenge.

Ok, I'm looking for the names of six current or former snooker professionals.
Their family names all begin with the same letter.
They are all of different nationalities (so six nationalities).
You can choose any letter and any set of nationalities. I'm assuming there are a high number of possible answers.

I failed to mention the minefield aspect of my question. If you provide a wrong answer, that unfortunately will 'explode' the letter, and no one will be permitted to use that letter again (until a correct answer is provided).
As Judders has given a wrong 'B' answer, I'm afraid players whose family names begin with B are now out.

I thought as long as the surename of the 6 players was the same and you use 6 different nationalities then that is what is required, unless I'm missing something.
