Hi Joshua,
Great that you are thinking big.
There is no age limit to being a professional player, it is all about your ability. Realistically to become good enoughto play professionally in Europe you need to have been playing the game for 8 to 10 years.
The answer to what you have to do to be a professional... Just get really good at the game...
