This is a list of Most Snooker World Titles ordered by the number of “ranking titles” they have won. A ranking title is a tournament which counts towards the snooker world ranking . World rankings were introduced in 1976-77, initially based on the results from the previous three World Championships . The first ranking event was thus the 1974 world Championship, won by Ray Reardon.
Ronnie O’Sullivan
Ronnie O’Sullivan holds the record for the most ranking titles with 37, surpassing Stephen Hendry’s total of 36 by winning the 2020 world snooker championship .John Higgins is third in the list with 31 wins, followed by Steve Davis with 28. Davis’s wins were made between 1981 and 1995, and he held the record until Hendry’s 29th win at the 1998 Thailand Master. Mark Williams with 24 wins, Judd Trump with 22 wins, Neil Robertson with 21 wins, and Mark Shelby with 20 wins are the only other players with 20 or more wins.

Ronnie O’Sullivan and John Higgins both reached the third round of the UK Championship with routine wins in York.
Seven-time champion O’Sullivan made breaks of 91, 74, 66 and 55 as he reeled off five frames on the trot to seal a 6-2 win over Robbie Williams.
Higgins made breaks of 87, 131 and 86 on the way to a comfortable 6-3 victory over Sunny Akani.
Two-time finalist Mark Allen also advanced with a hard-fought 6-4 win over Joe O’Connor.
It is almost three decades since O’Sullivan, 45, collected the first of his seven UK Championship titles in 1993.
And a sumptuous opening red was a timely reminder of the quality of a player who – despite being regarded as one of snooker’s greatest ever stars – has downplayed his enthusiasm for participating in recent years.
