In 2007 he had his most successful year to date, winning the Australian Open Championship,[3] the Australian National Championship held at the RACV Club in Melbourne beating Shawn Budd in the final, the Australian Masters Championship, beating Nathan Webb in the final[13] the Queensland Open, beating Steve Mifsud in the final.[22] and the NSW Open Championship.[23] He also reached the final of the Allied Metal Recyclers West Coast International where he lost to Neil Robertson.[24] In the Central Coast Leagues Club Classic he reached the semi-finals.[25] He also reached the semi-finals of the Lance Pannell Snooker Classic[26] and the Princes Coca-Cola Cup[27] He again reached the quarter-finals of the South Pacific Open Championship[28]

In 2008 Wilkinson won the Oceania Championship beating Chris McBreen in the final.[29] In the Kings Australia Cup he reached the semi-finals losing to Neil Robertson.[30] He also reached the semi-finals of the Australian Masters Championship[31] and the Lance Pannell Snooker Classic.[32] He is currently ranked at number two in Australia behind Steve Mifsud.[1]

It is essentially a mixture of a discrete distribution (constant 0) and a continuous distribution (a truncated Gaussian distribution with interval ( 0 , ∞ ) {\displaystyle (0,\infty )} ) as a result of censoring.
