Stuart Bingham

Stuart Bingham — the Ball-Run — is the 2015 World Snooker Champion and one of the most underrated players in the game’s history. The Basildon-born right-hander won his world title in a stunning Crucible upset and has remained a consistent top-32 performer since. Bingham’s powerful break-building and aggressive approach to frames can be devastating on his best days, and his World Championship victory — one of the biggest shocks in recent Crucible history — demonstrated he has the potential for major upsets. For bettors, Bingham is a long-shot value play at 66/1 to 100/1 in major championships. His 2015 win shows the ceiling is there, and his current market position as an outsider consistently undervalues what he can do at the Crucible specifically. Best backed in first and second round match betting where his experience can overcome seeded opponents.
