Career

edit

Amiri played on the World Snooker Tour for the first time in 2019–20, after winning a gold medal in the African Games. His first match as a professional came in the 2019 English Open where in the first round he lost 4–0 to Barry Hawkins.[2][3]

Barring a second round exit in the 2020 Gibraltar Open, he exited in the first round of every tournament he entered over his two-year tour card. He also drew Judd Trump twice during his debut season, being whitewasted in both instances. With only one win to his name, he fell off the tour after the 2020-21 season and did not attempt to regain his tour card via the 2021 Q School.
