In short
A player whose game is reportedly built around his safety play as opposed to his scoring, like fellow Antrim player Mark Allen, Jordan is a keen Manchester United fan and cites his other sporting heroes as Ronnie O’Sullivan, Roger Federer and Tiger Woods.
2009 Number 1
Coming into the 2009 Northern Ireland Championship final, Jordan needed to defend the title he won twelve months previously in order to capture the number one spot in the rankings at the end of the season and secure a main tour place.
After a close first session which he came out of with a 5-4 lead, this is what he was able to do as he took the next five to complete a crucial 10-4 victory against main rival Dermot McGlinchey and book his professional place.

2009/10
Jordan experienced a tough start to his first spell on the main tour as he lost his opening two ranking event matches, both in deciding frames to Patrick Wallace and Matt Selt respectively. He did get off the mark with a 9-4 success over Lee Spick in qualifying for the UK Championship but his run was subsequently ended by veteran Andy Hicks in the second round.
Another win came during the Welsh Open qualifiers against Chris Norbury but there were to be no further victories and a 10-9 defeat to Bjorn Haneveer at the World Championship confirmed his relegation from the tour.
