About

Alexandra Ceruță is the first woman from the Republic of Moldova to represent the country internationally in snooker, making history with her participation in the Women's World Championship and European Championship. At just 15 years old, she became the first Moldovan player to be included in the World Women's Snooker Tour, a special moment for the sport in the country. Her recent achievements include notable victories at the WSF Women's and WSF Junior in January 2026, where she defeated opponents such as Joel Connolly, Ralitsa Karaminkova, Craig Casha, and Stefan Stachowiak, reaching the quarterfinals of the women's category. Although active as an amateur, Alexandra has competed in major tournaments organized by the World Snooker Federation, including preliminary rounds and main tournaments. She is associated with the RST Snooker Federation from Romania, based in Bucharest, which suggests cross-border collaborations for her career development. Her results from the 2022-2023 and 2025-2026 seasons demonstrate her potential, with victories in head-to-head matches against players from various countries, contributing to the visibility of women's snooker in Moldova. Born in Chișinău, Alexandra is an example of perseverance in cue sports, a field traditionally dominated by men, but in which Moldovan women are beginning to excel. Details about her personal life remain limited in public sources, but her early passion for snooker places her among the remarkable athletes promoting gender equality in international competitions, inspiring future generations from the Republic of Moldova.
