Debut season Taylor won just two matches during the
2013–14 season to end his first season on tour ranked world number 123.
2014/2015 season Taylor lost 6–2 to
Anthony McGill in the first round of the
UK Championship. A few weeks later he beat
Michael Holt 4–3 to qualify for the
Indian Open, where he was defeated 4–3 by
Li Hang in the first round. At the end of the season Taylor was the world number 107 which would have seen him lose his place on the tour, however he finished 62nd on the
European Order of Merit which earned him one of the eight two-year cards on offer for non-qualified players.
2015/2016 season A 5–2 win over Simon Dent and successive last frame deciders against
Stuart Carrington and
Li Hang saw Taylor reach the final qualifying round for the
2015 Australian Goldfields Open in which he made a 132 break against
Mark King, but lost 5–4. He could not win another match until February when, at the
Welsh Open, he tasted victory at the venue stage of a ranking event for the first time in his career by defeating
Oliver Lines 4–1. Taylor lost 4–2 to
Anthony Hamilton in the second round. Taylor needed to come through the
2017 Q School to remain on tour as he lost his spot at the end of the season, due to his world ranking of 86. In the last 16 of the first event he needed a snooker when 3–2 down to Daniel Ward. He got it when Ward went in-off and made a 96 in the deciding frame, before whitewashing
Sean O'Sullivan 4–0 to earn a new two-year tour card. ==Performance and rankings timeline==
