After Karen Corr, who are considered the next best four players mainly playing in the US?

Who are the top 5 women in cue sports?

I know Russian pyramid has a lot of female players(I'm no expert on how good they are in that discipline), but why does it seem like there are not many female snooker players? considering how popular the game is over there, do they have an all female tour? Again, I'm no expert on snooker either, but I just never seem to see any videos with top snooker female players.

Do you believe that is an accurate reading of your skill level amongst the other women on the Fargorate scale?

The best female cueist in the world, IMO
Reanne Evans...11 World Ladies Championships....28 titles
...won her first round in the World Pro Championship this year

Current World Ladies Champion...Ng On Yee...plans to follow in Reanne's footsteps

If either one of these ladies decide to play pool, watch out...this is where Allison Fisher,
Karen Corr, and Kelly Fisher got their starts.

Ng On Yee, I believe, had a good showing at Qschool this year. I think she fell a round or two short of qualifying for the tour, which is very impressive given how tough the field is. Both ladies are excellent players.

I don't believe the question was about the "highest rated" women players, but about the "best". There can certainly be a difference to any sane person.

Kind of reads like a menu in a Chinese restaurant.

There are a few things written about Allison Fisher and the women's snooker tour, which is what caused her to come to the US to play pool. There is not nearly as much support and coverage for women's snooker as there is for the men. I think there is like a 10 fold if not more difference in prize money also.

Not to mention she was the favorite by far to win every event she entered

She was also one of the top women snooker players, I don't think she would have gone to play pool for $10,000 top prizes if she can get $100,000 top prizes for snooker. These are the tournament payouts this year http://www.worldsnooker.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/Click-Here-For-The-Prize-Money-Schedule.pdf, 50,000, 70,000, 100,000 150,000 prizes, and those are in british pounds, so add another 1/3 to that for USD conversion. 70,000 top prize is $100,000, and there are 6 events with that much or more. But from what I read, women's snooker to men is like comparing bowling or darts to baseball or football.
