Leicester’s Tom Ford secured the first ranking event title of his career at the 2024 Shoot Out.
Ford defeated Scotland’s Liam Graham 31-28 to become the 77th different winner of a ranking event over 20 years after making his professional debut in 2001.
Previously a ranking event finalist at the 2016 Paul Hunter Classic, 2023 German Masters and 2023 International Championship, Ford has reached multiple further semi-finals.
Among his most impressive runs came at the 2018 UK Championship where he reached the semi-finals of a triple crown event for the first time, before losing to eventual champion Ronnie O’Sullivan.
He has claimed two minor ranking event titles at Players Tour Championship events in 2010 and 2011 and reached a career-high world ranking of 13 in 2024, making him a seeded player at that year’s World Championship for the first time.
