Just now, Neil Robertson announced that he and his family had obtained their Hong Kong ID card. Previously, the Rockets and Xiaote both became Hong Kong residents, but some time ago, the Rockets said they would move to the Middle East and were not going to stay in Hong Kong. One of them just left and another one came. Why do snooker players like to settle in Hong Kong?

Let's see what Robertson said first. First of all, he is very honored to get his Hong Kong ID card. This is not only an important moment for him, but also a glory for their whole family. Robertson thinks that Hong Kong is his blessed land and he can achieve good results in Hong Kong. He previously won the 2025 Hong Kong Grand Prix.

Because of this, Robertson and Hong Kong have formed a deep friendship! Of course, more importantly, the Hong Kong ID card is more beneficial to its future development. In the future, he has prepared his development plan in Hong Kong and will share it with you soon.

Before, China's number one was Ding Junhui, and Hong Kong's number one was Fu Jiajun. After the Rockets moved to Hong Kong, many fans joked that Ding Junhui woke up and became China's second brother. Later, Xiaote moved to Hong Kong again. Now Robertson moved to Hong Kong again, and Zhao Xintong won the world championship, so I don't know where to put Ding Junhui and Fu Jiajun!

In fact, it is normal for Robertson and Trump to move to Hong Kong. First of all, Chinese style is developing well now. Many brands have signed two people as image ambassadors. When brands hold competitions, they occasionally need to attend the exhibition matches. Snooker has also developed very well in China, with many exhibition competitions and ranking competitions. If you settle in Hong Kong, it will be much more convenient for them to play and participate in activities.

Of course, there are also the tax avoidance issues mentioned by fans. Residents with dual identities only need to pay taxes in China or the UK. Hong Kong's tax collection is relatively low. For example, the Rockets' actual income in 2024 is about 11.62 million yuan. According to the tax revenue in Hong Kong, 1.8 million yuan is paid. If calculated based on the UK, 5.4 million yuan is required.

With the increase in snooker income, many top players have high incomes and naturally face high taxes. Moving to Hong Kong to avoid taxes is also a normal operation.

Not long after, O'Sullivan will also attend the event of Kangxi Shengshi. I don't know how O'Sullivan, who was bombed by the sky-high signing fee, will be arranged next season. If you participate in the competition, you might move back to Hong Kong. After all, the Rockets said before that they planned to move to the Middle East, but they have not made it clear that they have moved away!

O'Sullivan, Trump, and Robertson have all obtained their Hong Kong ID cards one after another, which fully proves that moving to Hong Kong is still quite attractive. I don't know that other players will not get their Hong Kong ID cards before!
