Emma Parker (born 24 April 1999) is an English snooker player. She made her tournament debut at the 2015 Eden Masters, aged 15,[1] and was number one in the women's under-21 world rankings as of April 2019.[2] Her highest position in the senior rankings is sixth.[3] She has reached three ranking semi-finals on the World Women's Snooker Tour.[3]

Career

[edit]

Parker started playing pool at the age of four, and turned to snooker at the age of 15 after her father and uncle took her to Romford Snooker Club.[4] In April 2017, she won the Under-21 Ladies World Championship at the Northern Snooker Center in Leeds. Following further success, she rose to 8th in the women's world rankings in September 2019.[3]

She and fellow tour player Reanne Evans were the two women among the eight wildcards for the 128-player televised 2019 Snooker Shoot-Out, making them the first women to compete in the final stages of a televised world ranking event.[5][6] Shoot Out matches are one frame and have a maximum duration of 10 minutes, with limited time allowed for each shot. Parker lost 17–61 to Laxman Rawat.[7]

Parker won the 2020 Belgian Women's Open (Under-21) event, beating Albina Hashcuk 2–0 in the final. She also reached the semi-finals of the main 2020 Belgian Women's Open event, where she lost 0–4 to Reanne Evans. Following this, Parker reached 7th in the women's snooker rankings, a new career best for her.[8]

Personal life

[edit]

Parker lives in Hornchurch, and is coached by Gary Filtness.[4] She works full-time for an accountancy company in Hornchurch.[8]
