Thepchaiya Un-Nooh is one of the most popular and richest Snooker Player who was born on April 18, 1985 in Bangkok, Thailand. Thepchaiya Un-Nooh (Thai: ethphaichyaa `unhnuu Thephchiya Xunhnu; the RTGS name: Thepchaiya Unnu; born 18 April 1985) is a Thai professional snooker player.

Un-Nooh beat his defending champion Ding Junhui in the opening match in the Indian Open, calling it his most significant win following the match. He also admitted that he was not sure if that he was able to take the title. However, he beat Luca Brecel 4-0 and then won against Jamie Jones and Mark Davis to make it to the semi-finals of an event with a ranking in the very first instance. Un-Nooh scored three half century breaks to move to a 3-0 advantage against Ricky Walden, but would fall 4-3. The Asian Final saw him place fourth on the Order of Merit to make his debut in the Grand Final, where he was defeated in a 4-1 loss by Mark Williams in the first round. Un-Nooh’s climb up the rankings continued, as he finished his year in 49th position in the world.

Un-Nooh lost in the qualifying rounds for the first four ranking events of the 2013–14 season, but then beat Gerard Greene 6–5 to reach the International Championship in Chengdu, China. In his first appearance in the main draw of a ranking event he thrashed Zhang Anda 6–1, before losing by the same scoreline to Neil Robertson in the last 32. However, the experience seemed to kick start Un-Nooh’s season as in 2014 he played at the venue stage of four of the remaining six ranking events. He beat Ronnie O’Sullivan 5–4 in qualifying for the German Masters, with the reigning world champion playing high risk exhibition shots throughout the match, but Un-Nooh was whitewashed 5–0 by Jack Lisowski in the first round. At the World Open, Un-Nooh led Stephen Maguire 3–0, before the world number eight rallied to win four frames in a row. The match went into a deciding frame in which Un-Nooh made a break of sixty only for Maguire to get a chance to win, but he missed the final brown to hand Un- Nooh a big scalp. He then reached the last 16 of a ranking event for the first time by beating Andrew Higginson 5–1 and lost 5–2 to Graeme Dott, despite missing the final pink when on a 147 break during the match. Un-Nooh advanced to the last 32 of the China Open by whitewashing 1997 world champion Ken Doherty 5–0, before losing 5–3 against Ding Junhui. His performances during the campaign saw him end it in the top 64 in the world rankings for the first time as he was placed 59th.

Un-Nooh scored his first professional win at the 2015 Six-red World Championship in Bangkok, Thailand. He beat world champion Stuart Bingham and former UK Champion Judd Trump en route to a final with China’s Liang Wenbo, which he won 8–2 in frames. Un-Nooh missed the final black in attempting to make a maximum break in his 6–2 loss to Neil Robertson at the UK Championship. He appeared on Channel 4 show TFI Friday a few days later to recreate the shot and this time potted it. At the World Grand Prix, Un-Nooh eliminated Marco Fu 4–3 and Mark Allen 4–2 to reach the quarter-finals. He made breaks of 97, 84 and 74 to lead 3–1, but Ding Junhui would take the match 4–3. Incredibly in the final round of World Championship qualifying Un-Nooh missed another 147 final black. He did make a 144 later on in the match, but his opponent Anthony McGill won it 10–7. Un Nooh increased his ranking by 16 places over the year to end it as the world number 33.

Un-Nooh smashed the world’s number one Mark Selby 5-3 in the second round of the World Open and then whitewashed Alan McManus 5-0 and beat Anthony McGill 5-2. In the semi-finals, he suffered losing 6-1 against Ali Carter. The third match of the Paul Hunter Classic against Kurt Maflin Un-Nooh made his first professional break of 147 after missing twice the final black of the previous season. He was awarded PS40,000, and he took the match 4-1. He then narrowly beat Mark Allen and David Grace both 4-3 in the semi-finals in a rank tournament, for the 2nd time in succession tournament. Un-Nooh lost 4-2 against Tom Ford. He was unable to improve on his loss in the following weeks, as he could not win a round one tournament until his 2017 Welsh Open, where he defeated Ben Woollaston 4-0 and then defeated Ryan Day 4-1, before losing 4-1 to Barry Hawkins.
