Jamie Jones (born 14 February 1988) is a Welsh professional snooker player from Neath. At the age of 14 he was the youngest ever player to make a maximum 147 break in competition, a record that has since been beaten by Judd Trump. At the 2012 World Snooker Championship, Jones 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.
In October 2018, Jones was suspended from the snooker tour pending a match-fixing investigation into a 2016 International Championship qualifier between Graeme Dott and David John. In January 2019, Jones was acquitted of match-fixing, however admitted to having prior knowledge of an approach to fix the aforementioned match and failing to report it, and was subsequently banned for a year. While the ban finished in October 2019, he ended the 2018–19 season outside the top 64 and was relegated from the tour. Jones rejoined the tour two seasons later via Q-School.
