India’s top cueist Aditya Mehta has taken a break and resigned from the WSA Professional Tour, but does intend to return next season.

Aditya, who reportedly, suffered from a neck injury in recent months has decided to take time away from the sport to rest the injury and regain fitness.

Aditya is currently in line for a fresh two-year tour card as one of the eight leading players on the European Tour Order of Merit who finish the season outside the top 64 of the main world ranking list. Aditya is now fifth on that list of eight players and he has stated his intention to return next season assuming he receives a tour card.

Aditya reached the final of the inaugural Indian Open world ranking event in New Delhi in 2013, beating the likes of Mark Williams and Stephen Maguire before being denied the title by Ding Junhui. His other career highlights include winning a gold medal at the World Games in Colombia in 2013 and becoming the first Indian to make an official 147 at the 2014 Paul Hunter Classic.

 

Later today on report of worldsnooker.com, Aditya tweeted "Determined to be back soon."
