Final victory requires a fairy tale
If Jack Jones were to go on to win the World Snooker Championship, it would be one of the biggest comebacks the tournament has ever seen.
Heading into the final session, he needs eight frames to reach the finish line and does not allow his opponent more than two wins.
Right now it’s all about having a little downtime, getting on the practice bench and seeing if I’m firing on all cylinders for that evening’s session.
The Welshman wins either way.
It was a great tournament for Jack Jones, even if he has to play the role of runner-up tonight.
As a result of this performance, he will move into the top 16 in the world rankings and will be eligible to play in more tournaments next season.
All of this is something he could never have dreamed of when he was playing his early qualifying matches.

There’s no denying that the World Snooker Championship is the pinnacle of the snooker calendar.
Once again, we saw some big upsets, great plays, and some spectacular potting.
Never before have so many centuries been suspended with money seemingly so tight, but it has become even harder for the world’s best to win trophies.
“Silver Lady” looking for a new home
After Luca Brecel took home the trophy last year, one of those two players will be taking her home tonight.
It will take a monumental comeback from Jack Jones to bring the trophy home to Wales, but anything is possible in this tournament.
Kyren Wilson may feel nervous as he approaches the finish line, but his opponent will need to take advantage of that.
