Michael 'The Hitman' Holt has spent the past 12 months coaching snooker since losing his professional tour card in disappointing fashion a year ago, but has used the enforced time out to learn a few lessons of his own. The former Shoot Out winner will join a 208-player scramble at Q School at Leicester's Morningside Arena next week (May 26-6 June) as he bids to return to the main circuit after failing to regain his tour card for the 2022/23 campaign. Ad Having dropped to 65 in the world following a 6-3 loss to Tom Ford in last year's World Championship qualifiers, Holt could not progress far enough at Pond's Forge in Sheffield at 2022 Q School to prevent his 26-year stay on the tour from coming to an end.
