Warren King is one of the most popular and richest Snooker Player who was born on April 1, 1955 in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. Warren King (born 1 April 1955) was an ex-professional Australian Snooker athlete who played during the 1990s and 1980s. King reached his highest ranking place, which was 35th, during the 1985/1986 season. He was runner-up at the 1990 Classic, where he was defeated 6-10 by Steve James.
The year 1986, at the Australian Professional Championship, King defeated Charlton in the semi-finals, and John Campbell 10-3 in the final to claim his first win in a tournament. After a successful year, he was able to be selected for his 1987 World Championship, defeating David Roe, Ken Owers and Charlton all by a score of 10-4. He was then drawn to play Steve Davis. In this match, Davis raced into a 7-1 advantage before King battled back to 8-7, but Davis won, 10-7.
The 1990/1991 season was quiet for King, but finished on a positive note, as he managed to qualify for the Crucible for the fourth time, straightforward wins over Jack Fitzmaurice, Rod Lawler and Barry West sealing his passage to the televised stage; however, he was drawn against a former or future World Champion for the fourth time – on this occasion, Stephen Hendry. King fared no better than in previous years, losing 4–10.
A lean period ensued, but in the 1990 Classic, King produced his best form. Entering at the last-96 stage, he defeated Mario Morra 5–3, Terry Griffiths 5–1, Charlton 5–2, John Virgo 5–1, Steve Newbury 5–3 and Silvino Francisco 6–5 – having trailed 3–5 – to reach a ranking event final for the first time in his career. His opponent in the final was Steve James and the match closely run; having at various points led 4–1, 5–2 and 7–6, James pulled away to win 10–6. This performance earned King £36,000, and ensured he finished the season – having started it ranked 55th and in some danger – in a much more secure position, at 39th.
In the 1985/86 year, King was on the right track and had a second last-32 place during the 1985 Matchroom Trophy, but had an indifferent season following and was within one game of making his return at the Crucible after he beat Dessie Sheehan, and Colin Roscoe in World Championship qualifying, but fell in his final match 7-10, losing to Reynolds.
