The latest snooker world rankings have been released following the conclusion of the 2026 German Masters, and it is Judd Trump who continues to dominate the sport. The English superstar has consolidated his position as world number one, extending his lead over his closest rivals.
Trumpโs Unstoppable Form
Trumpโs performance at the German Masters was nothing short of spectacular. His clinical potting, strategic safety play, and unwavering focus allowed him to secure crucial victories, reinforcing his status as the number one ranked player in the world.
โItโs been an amazing start to the season. Iโm thrilled to hold onto the top spot, but the competition is fierce, and I need to keep pushing myself,โ Trump commented after the tournament.
Movements in the Rankings
The post-tournament rankings have also seen several notable shifts:
-
Ronnie OโSullivan has moved up two places after a strong showing in Berlin, signaling he is back in serious contention for the top ranking.

Mark Selby, a four-time World Champion, has maintained a top-five position, keeping him in the hunt for the upcoming Masters events.
