Graeme Dott (born May 12, 1977) is a professional snooker player from Larkhall in Scotland.
Since turning professional in 1994, Dott has slowly climbed the rankings, reaching the top sixteen in 2001, where he has remained ever since.
A ranking victory still eludes him, but he was runner-up in the 1999 Regal Scottish Open, the 2001 British Open and the 2005 Malta Cup.
He was also runner-up in the 2004 Embassy World Snooker Championship, losing to Ronnie O'Sullivan 18 frames to 8 despite having opened up a 5-0 lead at the beginning of the match. His run there narrowly saved his top 16 status - at one point in that season he was provisionally outside the top 32. In the 2006 event he has reached the final, after beating Ronnie O'Sullivan in the semi-final. He is currently playing Peter Ebdon in the final for the £200,000 prize and is winning 13 frames to 7.
Graeme Dott scored a 147 break in the 1999 British Open.
He supports Rangers.]
Graeme married Elaine Lambie in 2001 and the couple celebrated the birth of their son, Lewis, in 2004. Elaine is the daughter of Graeme's manager, Alex Lambie.
