Background
The first World Snooker Championship final took place in 1927 at
Camkin's Hall in Birmingham, England, and was won by Joe
Davis.[1] Since 1977 the tournament has been held annually at the
Crucible Theatre in Sheffield, England.[2] The 2022 event marked
the 46th consecutive year that the tournament was held at the
Crucible, and the 54th successive year that the World
Championship was contested through the modern knockout
format.[3][4][5] Scottish player Stephen Hendry had been the most
successful participant at the World Championship in the modern

compatriot Shaun Murphy 18–15 in the final,[7][8][9] for which he
received a £500,000 top prize from a total prize fund of
£2,395,000.[6] Organised by the World Snooker Tour, the 2022 tournament was sponsored by sports
betting company Betfred,[10] which sponsored the event from 2009 to 2012 and continuously since
2015.[11]
Format
The 2022 World Snooker Championship took place from 16 April to 2 May 2022,[12] as the last of 16
ranking events in the 2021–22 season.[13] The event featured a 32-player main draw, preceded by a
128-player qualifying tournament that was held at the English Institute of Sport between 4 and
13 April 2022, finishing three days before the start of the main event.[14][15][16] The qualifiers were
played over four rounds, higher-ranked players being seeded and given byes to the later rounds.[16][17]
The first three qualifying rounds were played as the best of 11 frames, and the final round was played
as the best of 19 frames.[18]
The top 16 players in the latest snooker world rankings automatically qualified for the main draw as
seeded players.[14] Defending champion Selby was automatically seeded first overall.[19][20] The
remaining 15 seeds were allocated based on the latest world rankings, released after the 2022 Tour
Championship.[20] The 1991 champion John Parrott made the first-round draw for the Crucible on 14
April at Betfred Studios in Salford, drawing the qualifiers at random against the seeded players.[21][22]
Matches in the first round of the main draw were played as the best of 19 frames, second-round
matches and quarter-finals played as the best of 25 frames, and the semi-finals as the best of 33
frames.[21] The final was played over two days as a best-of-35-frames match.[19][23]
Reaching the first round of the tournament's main stage were 12 players from England, six from
Wales, four from Scotland, four from China, two from Thailand, and one each from Northern Ireland,
Australia, Belgium, and Iran. It was the first time in the tournament's history that Iran was
represented at the main stage.[24] It was also the first time, since the tournament first featured 16
seeded players in 1980, that no seeded player from the United Kingdom was aged under 30. This
occasioned debate about the increasing age profile of the UK's top players.[25]
The tournament was broadcast in the United Kingdom on the BBC and Eurosport,[26][27][28] and in
Europe by Eurosport.[28] Other international broadcasts were provided by Kuaishou, Migu, Huya
Live, Youku, and CCTV in China; by NowTV in Hong Kong; and by DAZN in Canada, the United
States, and Brazil.[28] In territories where there was no other coverage, the event was broadcast by
Matchroom Sport.[28]

Summary
Qualifying
Seven-time champion Hendry, who had rejoined the professional tour in 2021 after nine years in
retirement, chose not to enter the qualifiers for the 2022 tournament, stating that he had not been
practising enough to be competitive.[31][32] Liang Wenbo, seeded 32nd, would have entered the
qualifiers in the third round but the World Professional Billiards and Snooker Association suspended
him from professional competition on 2 April after he was convicted on a domestic assault
charge.[33][34]
First qualification round
The first qualifying round featured players seeded 81–112 against unseeded players.[35] Aged 15 years
and 277 days, Welsh amateur Liam Davies set a new record as the youngest winner of a World
Championship match by defeating Aaron Hill 6–4.[18][36] Jimmy White, runner-up on six occasions,
lost 2–6 to Andrew Pagett, although Pagett was criticised after footage showed him not declaring a
foul shot.[18][37] Marco Fu, a semi-finalist in 2006 and 2016, had not competed professionally since
the 2020 Welsh Open due to a combination of vision problems and COVID-19 travel
restrictions.[38][39][40] While preparing for his return, he made a rare break exceeding 147 in a
practice match against Noppon Saengkham, compiling a 149.[41]

He lost 5–6 to Ian Burns, who made a 141 break in the match.[40]
Four female players—Reanne Evans, Rebecca Kenna, Ng On-yee,
and Nutcharut Wongharuthai—competed in the qualifiers, but all
four lost in the first round.[42][43] Ukrainian teenager Iulian
Boiko, who had become the youngest player ever to compete in
qualifying as a 14-year-old in 2020, defeated Michael Georgiou 6–
4 to win his first World Championship match.[44][45]
Second qualification round
The second qualifying round featured players seeded 49–80 Marco Fu (pictured in 2014) played
against the first-round winners.[35] Veteran player Dominic Dale his first professional match in over
defeated compatriot Duane Jones 6–3, a key win for Dale in his two years in the first round of
effort to stay on the professional tour. Allan Taylor defeated qualifying.
Michael Judge 6–5 on the final black ball, a victory that helped
Taylor remain on the tour through the one-year rankings.[46][47]
Nigel Bond, the 1995 runner-up, lost his place on the tour after a
1–6 defeat to Lukas Kleckers.[48] Bond, the last player who turned
professional in the 1980s to remain on the tour without an
invitational tour card,[49] subsequently announced his retirement
after 33 seasons, commenting: "At 56, my time as a main tour
professional is at an end". Bond stated that he would not attempt
to regain his professional status through playing in Q School
events, but would still compete in the World Seniors
Championship, continue coaching,[48] and serve the remainder of
his term as a WPBSA Players Board director.[50]

Third qualification round
The third round of qualifying featured players seeded 17–48 against the second-round winners.[35]
Five amateur players reached this stage: James Cahill, Liam Davies, David Lilley, Daniel Wells, and
Michael White.[55] Michael White defeated Mark King 6–1.[56] Lilley, the reigning World Seniors
Champion, defeated Kurt Maflin by the same score, which meant Maflin lost his place on the tour.[57]
The other amateurs did not progress.[58][59][60] Dale received a walkover due to Liang's
suspension,[54] while Taylor achieved a surprise 6–4 win over 2013 semi-finalist and number 17 seed
Ricky Walden, who had narrowly missed qualifying automatically for the Crucible after a semi-final
loss in the Gibraltar Open.[56][61] Scott Donaldson reached the last qualifying round by defeating Li
Hang 6–5 on the final black ball,[61] and Ashley Hugill came from 2–5 behind to defeat Martin Gould
6–5, despite suffering from food poisoning during the match.[62]
Stephen Maguire, a semi-finalist in 2007 and 2012, played in the

qualifiers for the first time since 2018 after falling to number 40 in the
world rankings.[63] He defeated Zhang Anda 6–3.[56][64] Ding Junhui,
the 2016 runner-up, played in the qualifiers after falling to 29th in the
world rankings.[65] He defeated his compatriot Tian Pengfei 6–4.[57]

played on 12 and 13 April and broadcast live on the World Snooker Tour's
YouTube and Facebook channels.[70] It comprised the 32 third-round
winners facing each other in best-of-19-frame matches, all played over
two sessions, with the 16 victors advancing to the main draw at the
Crucible.[35] Ding trailed Lilley 4–7 but won six frames in a row to reach
the Crucible for a 16th consecutive year.[71] Maguire reached the Crucible
for a 19th consecutive time, defeating Zhou Yuelong 10–7 in a match he
described as "a dog fight from start to finish".[71][72] Hugill secured his

of the match by doubling the deciding black the length of the table.[71][72]

Main stage
First round
The first round was played between 16 and 21 April as the best of 19
frames.[84] Selby, who had withdrawn from the Turkish Masters and
Gibraltar Open as he struggled with mental health issues, considered
not defending his world title due to depression.[85][86][87] He had not
played competitively since his first-round loss at the Welsh Open, and
practised relatively little before the tournament.[88] He took an 8–3
lead over Jones but saw his lead reduced to two frames at 9–7. Selby
clinched a 10–7 victory when Jones went in-off in frame 17.[86] Ronnie
O'Sullivan, the world number one, equalled Steve Davis's record 30
Crucible appearances, having competed in the final stages of the
tournament every year since the age of 17.[89] He lost the first three
frames against Gilbert, but then won six in a row to lead 6–3 after the
first session.[86] O'Sullivan won four consecutive frames in the second
session to clinch the match 10–5 and equal Hendry's record of 70
Crucible victories.[90] He was referred to the WPBSA's disciplinary Ronnie O'Sullivan equalled the
committee after appearing to make a lewd gesture when he missed a record for the most

Championship.[93][94]
Zhao Xintong, who had won the first two ranking titles of his career earlier in the season, made his
second Crucible appearance.[95] Facing Clarke, he took a 7–2 lead in the first session and won all
three frames played in the second session as he wrapped up his first Crucible win 10–2. He made two
centuries and five more breaks over 70 in the match.[96][86] Afterwards, Clarke called Zhao "just
phenomenal, a sensation in our sport" and predicted that he would win the title within five years.[95]
Page led former runner-up Barry Hawkins 6–2, but Hawkins narrowed his deficit to one frame at 7–8
before Page made back-to-back total clearances of 128 and 135 to win 10–7. "I couldn't have asked for
a much better debut", commented Page. The first seeded player to exit the tournament, Hawkins
failed to reach the second round for the first time since 2010.[97]
Murphy and Maguire faced each other at the Crucible for the first time, Maguire establishing a 6–3
lead after the first session.[86][98] Murphy began the second session with a 130 break, his 100th World
Championship century, and reduced Maguire's lead to 7–6 at the mid-session interval.[98]
Commentating for the BBC, Doherty described the 14th frame as "one of the craziest" he had ever
witnessed.[98] Lasting 71 minutes, it included Maguire jokingly throwing his cue on the ground after
losing position and Murphy discussing for four minutes the referee's decision to award him a free ball,
before refusing to accept it out of sportsmanship.[98] Murphy eventually won the frame on the black
to tie the scores, and made a half-century in the 15th to lead for the first time at 8–7, but Maguire won
the last three frames to clinch a 10–8 victory.[98] Anthony McGill, a semi-finalist in 2020, led
Highfield 6–3 after the first session. Highfield reduced his deficit to one frame at 6–7, but McGill took
three of the last four to win 10–7, helped by a fluke in the final frame. McGill stated that he had
struggled in the match, acknowledging "a lot of mistakes and missed pots", but credited his victory to
his strong safety play.[99][100]
Three-time champion Williams won the first seven frames against

his compatriot Michael White, and wrapped up a 10–3 win in the
second session, making four centuries in the match.[90][101] "I
started off like a train, put Michael under pressure and didn't
really ease up", commented Williams.[102] Mark Allen defeated
Donaldson 10–6,[103] but voiced his unhappiness with how the
table had played.[92] Neil Robertson trailed Hugill 1–3 but won
eight consecutive frames on his way to a 10–5 victory, compiling
four centuries in the match.[104][105] Stuart Bingham, a semi- Noppon Saengkham's first-round
finalist the previous year, defeated Lyu 10–5 and made a 140 match against Luca Brecel began
break in the match, the highest of the first round.[106] Yan the day after his first child was born.
Bingtao, making his fourth Crucible appearance, compiled a
century and seven half-centuries in his first session against
Wakelin. He won five of the six frames played in the second session to clinch the match 10–6 and
reach the second round for a third consecutive year.[107] John Higgins made his 28th consecutive
Crucible appearance.[108] He trailed Un-Nooh 4–5 after the first session, but took six of the last eight
frames to win 10–7 and reach the second round for an eighth consecutive time.[109]
Jack Lisowski led Stevens 6–2, but Stevens recovered to tie the scores at 6–6. Lisowski won the next
three frames to go 9–6 ahead and eventually won the match 10–8. Lisowski stated afterwards that he
had been playing fearfully at the end because he was "guarding the lead, which is the worst thing you
can do".[110] The 2020 runner-up Kyren Wilson faced the 2016 runner-up Ding.[109] Ding led 3–0 and
7–5, but Wilson went ahead at 8–7. Ding tied the scores at 8–8 but missed a pivotal pot on the final
pink in the 17th frame as he attempted a clearance from 65 points behind. Wilson went on to win 10–
8 and called the performance "one of my best victories".[111] The match featured five centuries and 12
more breaks over 50.[112][111] Before his match with Vafaei, 2019 champion Judd Trump stated that he
had not been enjoying his snooker and did not have high expectations for the World
Championship.[113] The scores were tied at 3–3, but Trump won seven of the next eight frames for a
10–4 victory. Vafaei, who made a 121 break in the second session, called his Crucible debut "a very big
achievement for me and my country".[114] Luca Brecel faced Saengkham, whose wife had given birth
to the couple's first child the day before the match began, three weeks earlier than expected.[115] After
winning six of the first seven frames, Saengkham went on to clinch a 10–5 victory and reach the
second round for a second time.[115] He revealed that he and his wife had named their newborn
daughter Believe, stating that the name was inspired by Selby, who said "believe, believe, believe"
while 4–10 down to Higgins in the 2017 final, before coming back to win the title.[116]
Second round
The second round of the event was played as the best of 25 frames,
held over three sessions, between 21 and 25 April.[84] Thirteen of
the top sixteen seeds reached the second round, along with three
qualifiers, Page, Maguire, and Saengkham. Williams faced his
practice partner Page, a player he described as "not just a friend,
more like my fourth son". The players had met once previously in
professional competition at the 2020 Scottish Open, Williams
winning 4–1 on that occasion.[117] Williams won the first seven
frames,[118] and went on to complete a 13–3 victory, winning the Neil Robertson made a maximum
match with a session to spare and reaching the quarter-finals for break in the second round.
an 11th time.[119][120] He compiled six centuries in the match,
equalling the record for the most centuries in a best-of-25-frame
match set by Selby in the 2011 event.[120]
Maguire faced Zhao, who played the first best-of-25-frame match of his professional career.[121]
Maguire took a 5–3 lead in the first session and extended it to 11–5 in the second session, which was
briefly interrupted when a pigeon entered the arena and landed on the adjoining table where Yan was
playing Selby.[122] Maguire secured a 13–9 victory to reach the quarter-finals for a seventh time.
Calling his form against Murphy "rubbish", he said that he had driven to Glasgow after his first-round
match, borrowed a friend's cue, and practised with it to play Zhao.[121] O'Sullivan faced Allen, who
predicted that he would "get under the skin" of the world number one.[123] O'Sullivan attempted a
maximum break in the first frame but ran out of position after the tenth red and potted a pink,
finishing on 87. O'Sullivan won five consecutive frames in the first session to lead 6–2.[124][125]
O'Sullivan attempted a maximum again in the second session, this time potting 11 reds and 11 blacks
before losing position and missing a double on a red. He led 12–4 after the second session. The third
session lasted just one frame as O'Sullivan wrapped up a 13–4 victory, setting records both for
reaching a 20th quarter-final and for winning 71 matches at the Crucible.[126][127][128]
Tied 4–4 with Selby after the first session, Yan took a 9–7 lead after the second session.[129] In the
third session, the 46-minute 18th frame hinged on a safety battle over the brown.[130] Uncertain as to
whether the cue ball would pass the blue to pot the brown, Yan studied the shot for several minutes
before asking the referee to clean the cue ball, which referee Rob Spencer refused to do under the
circumstances. Some commentators, including Jimmy White and Alan McManus, initially called
Yan's request "out of order",[131] but Yan later explained that it was a joke.[132] Yan successfully made
the shot to pot the brown and went on to win the frame for an 11–7 lead. Selby won the next three
frames, reducing Yan's lead to one at 11–10.[130] The penultimate frame of the match lasted 85
minutes,[133][134] setting a new record for the longest frame ever played at the Crucible; the previous
record had been 79 minutes in a 2019 first-round match between Brecel and Gary Wilson.[135] Yan
won the frame on the final black, and went on to win the match 13–10.[134] Playing Bingham, Wilson
attempted a maximum break in the second session, potting 12 reds and 12 blacks before missing the
13th red.[136] Bingham made his own maximum break attempt in the third session, but ran out of
position after the 13th red. Bingham, who won the match 13–9 to reach his fourth quarter-final, said it
was on his "bucket list" to make a 147 at the Crucible.[137]
Saengkham and Higgins were tied at 4–4 after the first session, but Higgins won seven consecutive
frames in the second session to lead 11–5.[136] In the third session, with Higgins one frame from
victory at 12–6, Saengkham attempted a maximum break but missed the last red, ending on 112. "I'd
have loved him to get it. You could see how fired up he was and I really thought he was going to do it",
stated Higgins.[138] Higgins won the match 13–7 to reach his 16th quarter-final, putting him ahead of
Steve Davis and Jimmy White, who had both reached 15 quarter-finals, and behind only Hendry and
O'Sullivan, who had reached 19 and 20 respectively.[138] Trump led McGill 10–6 after the second
session.[139] McGill won four of the next five frames, narrowing Trump's lead to one at 11–10. Trump
won the next to move one frame from victory, but McGill closed the scores to 12–11, and was 30
points ahead in frame 24 when he missed a shot on a red with the rest. Trump won 13–11 to reach his
ninth quarter-final; he called the final session of the match "one of the best sessions I have been
involved in".[140][141]
Lisowski led Robertson 9–7 after the first two sessions.[142] In the 19th frame, Robertson made a
maximum break, the fifth of his career and the 12th maximum in Crucible history. He became the
eighth player, after Cliff Thorburn, Jimmy White, Hendry, O'Sullivan, Williams, Carter, and John
Higgins, to make a maximum in the final stages of a World Championship.[143] Robertson went 12–11
ahead and looked to be on the verge of victory when he made a 55 break in frame 24, but Lisowski
produced a frame-winning clearance of 72 to force a decider. Both players had opportunities to win
before Lisowski clinched the frame for a 13–12 victory.[144][145] Lisowski said afterwards: "I have
never experienced anything like that in my life. The cheer when I potted the red that got me over the
line in the decider… I am completely drained, I gave that literally everything I had and it has to be the
best win of my career."[146]
Quarter-finals
The quarter-finals of the event were played as the best of 25 frames, held over three sessions, on 26
and 27 April.[84] Maguire was the only qualifier to reach this stage; Yan and Lisowski both competed
in the quarter-finals for the first time. O'Sullivan, Higgins, and Williams, collectively known as the
Class of '92 having all turned professional in 1992, all reached the quarter-finals for the first time
since 2011. "I think it's incredible that it's been 30 years and the three of us are better players than
we've ever been", Higgins stated.[147]
Facing Maguire, O'Sullivan won six consecutive frames in the first session to lead 6–2.[148][149] He
won another five consecutive frames in the second session, ending it with an 11–5 lead.[150] O'Sullivan
wrapped up a 13–5 victory within 20 minutes of the final session to reach a record 13th semi-final,
breaking Hendry's previous record of 12.[151][152] In his first session against Yan, Williams won four
frames in a row after the mid-session interval to finish 6–2 ahead.[149][153][148] Yan won six of the
eight frames played in the second session, levelling the scores at 8–8.[150] In the final session, Yan
took a 10–8 lead, but Williams tied the scores at 10–10. Yan took advantage of several flukes to go 11–
10 ahead, but Williams won the last three frames to clinch the match 13–11 and reach his seventh
semi-final, becoming the oldest player to reach the final four since Ray Reardon in 1985. He stated
afterwards: "I am just so happy to get to the semi-finals. I am here 30 years on after turning pro and
still trying my best... I am scoring as well as I have ever scored."[154]
Higgins led Lisowski 5–3 after the first session and 8–7 after the second.[155][156] Higgins moved into
an 11–9 lead in the final session, but Lisowski won three frames in a row to lead 12–11 before Higgins
made a century break to force a deciding frame. Lisowski had the first chance in the decider but
missed a red while on a break of 18. Higgins clinched victory with a 72 break, winning 13–12.[157]
Afterwards, Higgins said he was delighted to reach the semi-finals but did not think he deserved the
win.[151] Trump led Bingham 5–3 after the first session.[155] Bingham won five consecutive frames in
the second session to lead 8–5, before Trump recovered to tie the scores at 8–8.[158] Trump took all
five frames played in the final session to clinch a 13–8 victory.[159] Trump noted the 14th frame as a
turning point in the match: "All of sudden, out of nowhere, Stuart missed a black off its spot and it
gave me some confidence. I was completely gone at 8–5. I just tried to enjoy it and give my all."[156]
Semi-finals
The semi-finals of the event were played as the best of 33 frames,

held over four sessions, between 28 and 30 April.[84] For the first
time at the Crucible, all four semi-finalists were former
champions, O'Sullivan having won six previous titles, Higgins
four, Williams three, and Trump one.[160] All three members of
the Class of '92 reached the semi-final stage for the first time since
the 1999 event.[161]
Trump and Williams played each other for the first time in a
Triple Crown tournament.[162] Williams made errors throughout Mark Williams came from 2–9
the first session and struggled with his long potting, as Trump behind against Judd Trump to lead
won seven of the eight frames played to lead 7–1. [163][164][165] 16–15, but lost the semi-final 16–17.
Both players complained about the condition of the table, which
was repaired during the interval.[166] Steve Davis noted the
contrast with Williams's strong performances in earlier rounds, saying: "It is a shock that Mark
Williams has gone off the boil. We expected him to continue his form."[163] Afterwards, Williams
apologised on Twitter for his poor play in the session.[167] In the second session, Trump made back-
to-back centuries to take a seven-frame lead at 9–2, but Williams responded with a 119 break to make
his 13th century of the tournament, a new personal best in any tournament of his career.[167] Both
players won four frames in the session to leave Trump leading 11–5.[168] Williams won six of the eight
frames in the third session, reducing Trump's lead to 13–11 and receiving a standing ovation as he left
the arena.[169] Doherty commented: "What a performance. The match between Judd Trump and
Mark Williams is back on."[167]
In the final session, Williams levelled the scores at 13–13 and 15–15. His 138 break in the 30th frame
was his 16th century of the tournament, equalling Hendry's 2002 record for the highest number of
centuries in a single year at the Crucible.[170] Williams went ahead for the first time at 16–15, but
Trump took the match to a deciding frame, before which the players received a standing ovation.[171]
Both players had chances to win, but Trump potted two of the last three reds with cross doubles and
then took the final red with a black to win the frame and match.[172][173] Trump commented that the
win was "once in a lifetime", and that playing Williams was akin to playing a video game on "hard
mode".[174] The media praised the drama and quality of the match, calling it a "thrilling Crucible
clash"[171] and "one of the great matches in Crucible history".[175] At the end of the year, the World
Snooker Tour ranked the semi-final between Trump and Williams in second place on its "Top Ten
Matches of 2022" list.[176]
O'Sullivan and Higgins met at the Crucible for a sixth time.[177] Before the semi-final, O'Sullivan led
their head-to-head 36–33, but Higgins had won five of their last six encounters.[178] They had last met
at the Crucible in the quarter-finals of the 2011 event, when Higgins won 13–10 en route to his fourth
title.[154] Both players struggled to find fluency at the outset, with O'Sullivan's average shot time
exceeding 29 seconds in the first two frames.[163] Higgins won the first three frames, but O'Sullivan
levelled the scores at 4–4 after the first session.[178] The scores were level again at 6–6 in the second
session, but O'Sullivan then moved 9–6 ahead. In the final frame of the session, O’Sullivan was 51
points behind with 51 remaining on the table. After potting a red and black, he made a 43 clearance to
force a re-spotted black, which he potted to take a 10–6 lead.[179]
O'Sullivan won five of the eight frames played in the third session, ending with a total clearance of
134, to extend his lead to 15–9.[172][180] Higgins, whose 103 in the 21st frame was his only break over
70 in the match, slammed the butt of his cue on the floor in frustration after missing a red in the 23rd
frame.[181] The final session lasted four frames as O'Sullivan wrapped up a 17–11 win.[172] Higgins
stated afterwards that he was disappointed with how he had played, but praised his opponent:
"Ronnie was far too good for me. He was lethal. I don't think he missed one ball when he was in
among them, he might have run out of position a few times, but other than that he was
unbelievable."[182]
Final
The final of the event was played on 1 and 2 May 2022 as a best-of-35-
frames match, held over four sessions, between O'Sullivan and
Trump.[84] Belgian referee Olivier Marteel took charge of his second
World Championship final, having previously refereed the 2015 final
between Bingham and Murphy.[183] O'Sullivan was contesting his eighth
World Championship final, having won six and lost one previously, and
Trump was competing in his third final, having won one and lost one
previously. The finalists had met once before at the Crucible, in the semi-
finals of the 2013 event, when O'Sullivan defeated Trump 17–11.[184]
Trump stated before the match: "It's always been a dream of mine to play
Ronnie in the final."[171] Olivier Marteel (pictured in
2013) officiated over his

personal best at the Crucible.[185][186] In the fourth frame, O'Sullivan
engaged in a three-minute discussion with the referee about the correct
replacement of the cue ball after a miss had been called.[187] O'Sullivan came from behind in the
frame to force a re-spotted black, which he potted with a double off three cushions to lead 3–1.
O'Sullivan went on to lead 5–1, making another century in the sixth frame.[186] Trump won the last
two frames of the session, reducing O'Sullivan's lead to 5–3.[188][189] O'Sullivan and referee Marteel
had several heated exchanges during the session and did not shake hands afterwards. Marteel issued a
formal warning over a gesture O'Sullivan made near the end of the eighth frame after failing to escape
from a snooker, but O'Sullivan denied any wrongdoing, later accusing the referee of "looking for
trouble".[190][188][185] Trump won the first frame of the second session, but O'Sullivan took seven of
the next eight, capitalising on safety errors and missed pots by Trump to end 12–5 ahead, his largest
overnight lead in any of the world finals he had played.[191][188] O'Sullivan's 118 break in the 11th
frame was his 15th century of the tournament, a new personal best in a single year at the Crucible.[192]
Speaking critically for the BBC, Murphy stated that Trump had "made far too many mistakes" and had
"a horrific night in front of him" after the first day's play.[188]
Trump began the third session with his first century of the match, and went on to win six of the eight
frames played, reducing O'Sullivan's lead to three at 14–11. It was the only session O'Sullivan lost in
the tournament.[193][194][195] In the final session, O'Sullivan won three of the first four frames with
breaks of 82, 88, and 75 to go 17–12 ahead at the mid-session interval. Trump made a century to win
the 30th frame, bringing the total number of Crucible centuries to 109, breaking the record of 108
achieved the previous year.[196] However, O'Sullivan made an 85 in the 31st to win the match 18–13
and equal Hendry's record of seven world titles.[197][198] Calling it "probably the best result I've ever
had", O'Sullivan said the final had been "a titanic battle against a strong competitor who is young and
hungry". Trump said he had "made a fight of it against the best player of all time" and called
O'Sullivan's seventh world title "an amazing achievement for him and for snooker".[198] The victory
gave O'Sullivan his 39th ranking title and 21st Triple Crown title. Aged 46 years and 148 days, he
became the oldest world champion in snooker history, surpassing Reardon, who was 45 years and 203
days old when he won his final title in 1978.[195][199] O'Sullivan also set a new record for the most
matches won at the Crucible, with 74,[200] and ended the season as world number one.[201] Writing
for Snooker Scene, editor Clive Everton praised these achievements by O'Sullivan, calling him
"snooker's answer to Tiger Woods in golf or Roger Federer in tennis".[202]
The last session of the final attracted a peak audience of 4.5 million viewers on BBC Two, the highest
figure since 2014 and a 17 per cent increase over the previous year. Overall, the event attracted a 30
per cent greater share of the BBC's viewing audience than the previous year. The event was
Eurosport's best tournament on record in the UK, in terms of both average audience and market
share. Eurosport also achieved record viewership figures in France, Germany, Italy, Poland, and
Spain for the event.[203]
