About Matthew Stevens

Matthew Stevens (born 11 September 1977, Carmarthen, Wales) is a Welsh professional snooker player.

After the 2007 World Championships, Stevens has dropped out of the elite top 16 for the first time in 8 years. His best results have been in the big tournaments, such as the UK Championship and World Championship as longer matches seem to suit his playing style.
