Greg Harlow

Profile

After getting into the top 4 in 2016 it was Greg’s superb form and 100% concentration throughout the season to keep in form that saw him reach the final of the World Indoor Singles at Potters Resort in 2017 helping to add to the points and Greg went into the coveted No.1 slot on the World Indoor Ranking list. With yet another great season Greg retained this slot and goes into the 2018-19 season still at World Number 1.

Still the only player on the Tour to have won 3 consecutive International Open Titles and with 7 other WBT Titles to his credit Greg has all the necessary skill set in the game to stay out in the lead this coming season.
