Autographs of Jimmy White
James Warren White MBE (born 2 May 1962) is an English professional snooker player who has won ten ranking events. Nicknamed "The Whirlwind" because of his swift and attacking style of play, White has reached six World Snooker Championship finals during his career but finished runner-up on each occasion. He has won two of snooker's Triple Crown events, the 1984 Masters and the 1992 UK Championship. White is a record four-time World Seniors Champion, winning in 2010, 2019, 2020 and 2023.
White won the English Amateur Championship in 1979 and he turned professional in 1980. He reached his first World Championship final in 1984 and won his first ranking event at The Classic in 1986. White reached five consecutive world finals from 1990–94, losing all of them, including four to Stephen Hendry. His form then began to decline, and his last ranking event victory came at the 2004 Players Championship. His last appearance at the World Championship was in 2006 and he has unsuccessfully attempted to qualify each year since. After dropping out of the top 64 in 2017, White was given invitational tour cards for a place on the World Snooker Tour up until 2023. White regained his card on merit at the end of the 2022–23 season, before being given a new invitational card in 2025 to run until the end of the 2026–27 season.
White's ten ranking event titles currently place him twelfth on the all-time list of ranking event winners. A mainstay in snooker's top 16 for much of the 1980s and 1990s, White has a career high ranking of second. He has made over 300 century breaks in professional competition, and was also the first left-handed player, and the second player overall, to record a maximum break at the World Championship. White is a member of the World Snooker Tour Hall of Fame.
