CRITERIA:

Potting: based on the player’s current form and how he’s been able to score, avoid easy misses and pot his way out of trouble.
Break-building: based on the player’s best potential, how he works his way around the table, controls the cue-ball and scores heavy.
Safety play: based on the player’s current form, how he’s been able to endure safety battles and create opportunities.
Long potting: based on the player’s current form at potting from distance.
Tactical play: based on the player’s snooker IQ, consequently how he chooses his shots and when to do what.
Pressure play: based on how the player handles pressure situations, and how much his level drops or not under pressure.
