Wu Yize earned a place on the World Snooker for the first time at the 2021 CBSA Qualifiers in Beijing.
The Chinese prospect burst onto the international scene at the 2019 International Championship in Daqing. Competing as a wildcard, the youngster took four-time world champion John Higgins to a deciding frame, eventually losing 6-5.
During his maiden professional season he reached the last 32 stage of three ranking tournaments, most notably the UK Championship where he defeated Lu Ning and Hammad Miah, before losing to fifth seeded Kyren Wilson.
In 2020, he reached the semi-final so the WSF Junior Open in Malta, before losing out in the last eight of the main WSF Open competition a week later.
He also made his debut at the professional World Championship, securing wins against Ashley Hugill and Robbie Williams, before falling to former Masters champion Alan McManus in the third qualifying round.
