- "Trump became the eleventh.." was it Trump's first ever world title?

- "The previous year's championship was " Think there's a risk we've lost where we are with this current year as we've delved into some of the history of the tournament, so perhaps reinforce that it was the 2018 championship.

- I wonder if it's beneficial to include in parentheses how many each player made, to avoid having to count up the scores?
- Potentially - This would potentially be allowable under WP:COUNT. Is this a deathnail, as I'd like to talk this one through with the Wikiproject before going ahead. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 13:16, 30 August 2019 (UTC)
- "by World Snooker internationally " here you use italics, but earlier on (Hearn) you don't, be consistent.

That's sufficient for a first pass I think. Let me know if anything's unclear, otherwise I'll see you soon! The Rambling Man (Staying alive since 2005!) 10:36, 22 August 2019 (UTC)

Happy with the changes and the quality of the article now easily meets/exceeds the GA criteria, so I'm passing this article. Good work. The Rambling Man (Staying alive since 2005!) 07:33, 2 September 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks for your time TRM! I'll try and do a little more cleanup before I nominate for FA (My current FAC just needs a source review before I can nominate another). Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 07:56, 2 September 2019 (UTC)
