Mark Davis (snooker player)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Mark Davis is a snooker player from St. Leonards in Sussex, England. For 2005/2006 he is the world #42, with 2006/2007 likely to be his 5th successive season in the top 48. This represents a career resurgence for a player who came close to losing his Main Tour status in the late 1990s. Reaching the quarter-finals of the 2001 Regal Scottish tournament, his second career quarter-final, was the main catalyst for this. In 1995 he defeated Ken Doherty in the first round of the World Championship, however he lost to Ken in the first round of the Irishman's 1997 title-winning run. While Steve Davis is not related to Fred Davis and Joe Davis, Mark Davis is the brother of Steve Davis and the cousin once removed of Joe Davis and Fred Davis.
