Robin Hull (born 16 August 1974) is a Finnish professional snooker player. He is the only Scandinavian player on the game's Main Tour, although his accent reflects the fact that he was largely raised in London.
He qualified for the World Championship in 2002, knocking out Steve Davis in the final qualifying round. In the First Round proper he lost 10-6 to Graeme Dott. He has twice reached ranking event quarter finals - the 2003 Welsh Open and the 2006 Malta Cup.
Hull is a solid break-builder and has compiled 106 competitive centuries during his career. However, he is one of the few players to have missed the final black during a 147 attempt.
A potentially-fatal viral infection kept him out of much of the 2003-2004 season. He was forced to pull out of qualifying for the 2007 World Championship, due to an irregular heartbeat thought to be linked to his past illness [1].
