Round 1
Best of 19 Frames
What's the score in final frame
You'd feel bad for Mark there
Oh my God!!
Like Higgins today. Bad safety shots
At least it will help him forget the “rerack” that never happened.
Well done Wu, I hope you beat Muppet Murphy now
Absolute meltdown from Mark Allen there. Hard to watch.
Feel devastated for Mark Allen tbh,he was in the final!!!
Allen choked that away
That final break by Wu was incredible.Nerve-wracking just watching it.
Mark Allen will need several sessions with Rory McIlroy's shrink after that one.
3 frames in a row to win it....
Incredible....
But Mark Allen absolutely bottled it...he will never forgive himself for that...
Sport is brutal.
He was so close, think he could've beaten Murphy too. Real shame. But Wu won well and deserved it.
Heart break for Mark. Tough for either to lose such a close match.
Wu's ability to pot from anywhere got him over the line. He looks like a potential multi world winner
Do you not remember Ebdon 1992? Ponytail swashbuckling fast play? That is the same player.
Fair play to Allen in his interview spoke very well. It can't be easy to talk about that so soon but he did miss chances in all of the last 3 frames I think aside from the obvious black
Wow! When Allen went 16-14 up i thought there was no chance of Wu winning three in a row. Fair dues to him.
What a superb day of entertainment from both matches.
Hopefully a potters paradise of a final.
Yeah great interview - classy to say Wu deserves to be in the final.
Ill be definitely cheering for Wu in the final!

I don't I was 10
Fair play to Mark.
Great attitude
The roughest way to lose, feel sorry for Allen, but Wu was incredible there, hope he wins it now.
Snooker bloody hell!
Style wise I think Wu’s scoring prowess and aggression beats Murphy. 18-15
The Crucible never fails to deliver...i cant sleep now after that!
Love snooker but more of a fair weather fan, loving this years championship. I'm getting a bit of an anti Shaun Murphy vibe on here, why so? And why is he nicknamed the magician?
I'm exhausted after that but I'm also too wired to sleep
I f*cking love snooker.
Well Guys that was super session of snooker the drama at the end was unreal.
Yeah that black reminded me of Rory McIlroy's missed putt but there's four golf majors a year to redeem yourself and one snooker world championship.I know Mark Allen wanted it so much as well- feel for him,he was in uncharted territory tonight though and he's usually excellent under pressure.
Sweet Jesus. I only watched final frame and did not realize the missed black from Mark to win… good Lord. Kyren mentioned why was his hand not on table when playing it.. easiest black be seen missed in a long time
Got the impression that Shaun Murphy did not exactly embrace his Irish roots in the past. Then heard that things had changed and he was living here for a few years. Is it time to get behind him?
