Nineteen-year-old Ding earned a total of 128,830 British Pounds in world
snooker tour prize money during the 2005-2006 season.
The increase in earnings is due to his outstanding performance on the world
scene.
Ding won the UK Championship last December, becoming the first non-British or
Irish winner of the prestigious event.
He also reached the semi-finals of the 2005-06 Premier League.
Former World number one Ronnie O'Sullivan tops the money rankings, followed
by newly-crowned world snooker champion Graeme Dott.
