Wright refuses to retire
We’ve been here before with Wright as Snakebite’s form has been inconsistent for much of 2024.
In October, Wright rejected calls from fans to retire after a disappointing run throughout the summer. Speaking to The Sun, he said: “I’m not finished with these guys yet. I enjoy playing against them.
“If I can start playing my game, maybe not in every tournament, but if I can upset them now and again and pick up a title, I’ll be happy.
“That’s what I’ve always done in my career. I’ve never been that consistent player who is dominating everything. But when I put my mind to stuff eventually it comes out that I will win.”
