Tuhia he tomokanga mō tēnei wāhanga - He tino pai te tīmatanga o Higgins ki te tau 2015/16 i a ia e wikitōria ana i te Australian Goldfields Open
mā te whiu i a Martin Gould 9 ki te 8 i te whiringa toa. Kaore i roa ka wini ia i te taitara 28 o tana mahi i muri i tana wikitoria i a David Gilbert 10 × 5 i te whiringa toa o te Whakataetae a-Ao. Na tenei i neke a Higgins i te taumata ki a Steve Davis i roto i te raarangi o nga huihuinga kua wikitoria, engari e waru tonu kei muri o Stephen Hendry. I whakatuwherahia e Higgins tana hauwhā whakamutunga me Neil Robertson i te 2015 UK Championship me te 600th rau o tana mahi, engari i muri 4<unk>1. He 69 me te rua 134 nga pakaru i kite ia i te taatai, i mua i te wikitoria o Robertson 6 <unk> 5. I tata a Higgins ki te whiringa toa o te China Open, engari na te 131 o Ricky Walden i pakaru i te anga whakamutunga i ngaro ai ia 6<unk>5 i nga whiringa toa. I kite ia i a Ryan Day 10<unk>3 me Walden 13<unk>8 i te Whakataetae o te Ao, engari i ngaro ia 13<unk>11 ki a Alan McManus i te hauwhā o te hauwhā, 11<unk>9 i mua, ka mea i muri mai kua pakaru ia i raro i te pehanga.
