Snooker Star Neil Robertson Lands Hong Kong Residency
Snooker titan unveils fresh commercial endeavor following accomplishment as third world champion to establish home in Hong Kong
Australian snooker champion Neil Robertson, who has spent recent years based in Cambridge with his wife, Mille, and their kids [1], is now sporting a new identity—Hong Kong resident! Robertson expressed his gratitude, saying, "I am very honored that my whole family and I have obtained Hong Kong identity cards." [2]
Hong Kong, once under British rule, has been a fertile land for Robertson, where he's had several major triumphs, nurturing deep bonds with the city. The fresh identity allows him greater freedom to visit Hong Kong more frequently, further his professional engagements, and even explore new business endeavors [5].
The Quality Migrant Admission Scheme, designed to attract highly skilled or talented individuals to boost Hong Kong's economy, has welcomed Robertson into its ranks—a scheme that has already proven attractive to fellow snooker luminaries Ronnie O’Sullivan and Judd Trump [2][4].
O'Sullivan, a seven-time world champion, and Trump, the current world No. 1, have also found a home in Hong Kong, evidently captivated by the city's cultural, economic, and sports appeal. For each of these players, the decision to set roots in Hong Kong signals a commitment to embracing new opportunities and strengthening relationships within the vibrant expat community.
With an eye on his future in the city, Robertson is gearing up to unveil his comprehensive development plans for Hong Kong soon. Stay tuned as he continues to plant seeds in the bustling, cosmopolitan metropolis.
