I’m interested to see how they will do Wu’s winners speech.
Interpreter on deck
Amazing.
Wu had a great chance to knock that yellow off that he put safe earlier. Could cost him.
I called that to my very bored wife at the time that yellow was going to be a big problem the moment he didn’t nudge it away.
…No problem. Drop it in with a rest. Easy game.
Come on the Wu
Whoa. There’s always a twitch somewhere. You can’t beat the drama snooker throws up
Christ!
Has to be one of the best finals in years.
Yes yes yes. It’s finally happened.
Nice handshake there, what a sport.
I can’t believe it. It’s exactly what i wanted.
Wu seems absolutely pumped to be world champ doesnt he? ![]()
WOOOOO, or WUUUUU
Yes!
Watched it a bit behind live and nearly popped in this thread before I realised. Would have given the result away.
Incredible game, incredible tournament from start to finish. 2 Chinese world champions in a row surely marks a tidal shift? Been threatening to happen for a long while.
It is a thing but it hasn’t been as tidal as some have made out maybe?. Two players out of 8 in the quarters and one in the semis. For how huge it is in China it seems about right.
Right now it seems that they pretty much need to come here to get to that standard, but there’s probably miles more players with the raw talent in China who don’t get that opportunity. Got to think that will change over time though.
Totally. Most of the top Chinese players live in Sheffield when they’re not on tour. Bit like skating in the 80s/90’s ( Cali not Sheffield )
I want to see how this chalk thing with Ronnie develops. Looks like they’ll ban it soon as everyones over it. Would have been hilarious if he’d played Robertson and then Murphy who probably complain about it the most. Everyone just accepted it a couple of years ago. Funny situation.
It would probably be banned already if it wasn’t Ronnie in particular who is the only one holding out. Apparently common for clubs to ban the old chalk.
