Jamie Jones (born 14 February 1988) is a Welsh former professional snooker player, from Neath.
He was the youngest ever player, at age 14, to make a maximum 147 break in competition, a record that has since been beaten by Judd Trump.
At the 2012 World Snooker Championship he reached his first ranking quarter-final.
He made his second appearance in the quarter-finals of a Triple Crown tournament at the 2016 UK Championship. Jamie Jones made the 141st official maximum break in the third frame of his last 64 match against Lee Walker at the 2018 Paul Hunter Classic.
It was Jamie's first professional maximum break. In October 2018, Jones was suspended from the snooker tour pending a match fixing investigation.
The match in question was a 2016 International Championship qualifier between former world champion Graeme Dott and Jones’ good friend and compatriot David John. In January 2019, Jones was acquitted of match-fixing, however he admitted to having prior knowledge of an approach to fix the aforementioned match and failed to report it, so was subsequently banned for a year himself. Whilst his ban finished in October 2019, due to missing out most of the 2018/19 season, he ended the campaign outside of the top 64 and officially dropped off the tour.
