Habib Subah is a Bahraini former professional snooker player.

Career[]

Subah competed as an amateur in the early 2000s, before receiving a wildcard entry to the 2005 China Open. In his wildcard match, he defeated Jimmy Michie 5–3, making a break of 83 in the second frame; he was drawn against Stephen Lee, who whitewashed him 5–0 in the last 32.

This performance, the first and only last-32 finish of Subah's career, was enough for him to turn professional for the 2005/2006 season, becoming the first Bahraini professional snooker player.^[1]

During that season, he played six matches but lost all of them, the closest being a 4–5 defeat in the 2005 Malta Cup to Nick Dyson. Subah earned no prize money and as a result, ranked 91st at the season's conclusion, fell off the tour thereafter.

Subah competed in the wildcard round of the 2008 Bahrain Championship, losing 0–5 to Mark Davis, the 2010 World Open, where the retired Darren Morgan defeated him 3–1, and latterly Q-School in an attempt to regain his professional status. These efforts, despite a defeat of former world number two Tony Knowles in one event, proved unsuccessful.
