5x expansion verified, no close paraphrasing found. The first hook is a bit niche since the meaning of "qualifier" might not be obvious to non-snooker fans so let's go with ALT1, which is cited inline and verified in the source. This will be good to go once the QPQ has been done. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 11:36, 1 July 2020 (UTC)

Should be good to go now. Image is fine too. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 07:11, 3 July 2020 (UTC)

Could we have a review of ALT2 please? Pinging original reviewer Narutolovehinata5. Yoninah (talk) 07:40, 8 July 2020 (UTC)
- I still prefer ALT1 although ALT2 meets requirements. Apart from being a bit negative (despite the player not being named in the hook), ALT1 sounds more surprising. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 07:49, 8 July 2020 (UTC)
- Narutolovehinata5, thank you, but we ran a similar hook in June. Yoninah (talk) 07:51, 8 July 2020 (UTC)
