Bio
Charismatic Holt has been a popular figure on the tour since he first turned pro back in 1996, and the talented cueman has had some outstanding moments on the baize, particularly winning his first ranking title at the Shoot Out in 2020. He has beaten many of the sport's greats, notably winning three consecutive matches against Ronnie O'Sullivan in 2016. After suffering relegation from the tour in 2022, Holt had a spell in the doldrums, but bounced back in 2024 by topping the Q Tour ranking list by winning three events. The Nottingham potter hopes that his best years could still be ahead.
