Kyren Wilson's mum postponed a crucial cancer operation to watch her son lift the Snooker World Championship earlier this year.

There were emotional scenes after Wilson lifted his maiden crown at the Crucible and it's since been revealed that his mum Sonya was diagnosed with Breast Cancer two weeks before he kicked off his charge to the trophy.

The ‘Warrior’ then had to navigate his way to a first world title with the heartache of his mum’s illness weighing heavy on his shoulders.

Sonya, who was at the Crucible on that memorable night as Wilson lifted the famous trophy aloft, was also in the crowd to see him win the Northern Ireland Open with a 9-3 hammering of world No.1 Judd Trump on Sunday night.
