Duncan Campbell (born 24 September 1966) is a Scottish former professional snooker player. [1]
Born in 1966, Campbell first experienced competitive snooker in the 1986 Scottish Amateur Championship, where Steve Muir beat him 9–3 in the final. During the 1988–89 season, he entered three WPBSA main tour qualifying events, reaching the final of Event 2 of the Pro Ticket Series, where Thai prospect James Wattana defeated him 5–1, and winning his match against Gary Filtness 5–2 in the Professional Play-offs to secure his place on tour.
Campbell's first season as a professional was underwhelming; early exits in the Hong Kong Open to Les Dodd and in the Asian Open to John Rea were followed by second-round losses in the next four ranking events. In the 1990 European Open, he overcame Pat Houlihan and Dave Gilbert to reach the last 64, but was beaten there 5–4 by John Virgo.
At the 1990 Dubai Classic, Campbell produced the best performance of his career, defeating Ken Owers, Craig Edwards and Tony Meo to reach the last 32, where he lost 3–5 to Jason Whittaker; he repeated this feat in that season's European Open, but again could progress no further, losing 2–5 to Steve James.
Campbell's ranking had improved to 66th for the 1990–91 season, but the next was poor, heralding only three wins from fourteen matches. Having lost all nine of his matches in 1992–93, he did not play professionally again; ranked 158th by that season's conclusion, Campbell was relegated from the tour in 1994.

Stephen Gordon Hendry is a Scottish professional snooker player who dominated the sport during the 1990s, becoming one of the most successful players in its history. After turning professional in 1985 at age 16, Hendry rose rapidly through the world rankings, reaching number four in the world by the end of his third professional season. He won his first World Snooker Championship in 1990 aged 21 years and 106 days, surpassing Alex Higgins as the sport's youngest world champion, a record he still holds. From 1990 to 1999, he won seven world titles, setting a modern-era record that stood outright until Ronnie O'Sullivan equalled it in 2022. Hendry also won the Masters six times and the UK Championship five times for a career total of 18 Triple Crown tournament wins, a total exceeded only by O'Sullivan's 21. His total of 36 ranking titles is second only to O'Sullivan's 39, while his nine seasons as world number one were the most by any player under the annual ranking system used until 2010.
