Biography

Lee is one of snooker's great characters. As well known for his "rapping" talents off the table as his prowess on it.

He is well known to television audiences, and has appeared on Big Break and at major tournaments.

And such is his prowess that he's compiled more than forty 147s in practice and one in a tournament.

One of his proudest moments as a professional came in the European Open in 1994 in Amsterdam when he beat Jimmy White in the last 16. Other notable scalps included Alain Robidoux.

Now riding high on the EASB Senior Tour, Richardson is well on the way to achieving his ambition of getting back into the professional ranks and on the WSA Challenge Tour next season.

His other major ambition is to emulate his hero Eminem and record a rap album.
