Career

Abumdas won a place on the main tour for the 2013–14 and 2014–15 seasons after finishing runner up to Peter Francisco in the 2013 ABSF African Snooker Championship.[2][3] However, his opening season started late in November due to visa issues and he lost all of his five matches winning only five frames, with his best result being a 5–2 defeat to former top 16 player Ryan Day in the qualifying rounds for the 2014 China Open. He finished the season ranked last at 131st in the world.[4]

Abumdas did not enter any tournaments of the 2014–15 season and dropped off the tour.[5]
