All eyes are on Ronnie O'Sullivan at the world-famous Crucible Theatre in Sheffield as the snooker legend tries to win a record eighth World Championship title. But he faces some stiff competition from the likes of the in-form Shaun Murphy — who won the recent Tour Championship — Mark Allen, Judd Trump and Mark Selby.
Judd Trump going on holiday before the 2023 World Snooker Championship was a «mistake», says Alan McManus. Trump departed the Crucible at the first-round stage following a 10-6 loss to the relatively unheralded Anthony McGill. Ad It's the latest defeat in a difficult period for the 33-year-old, who hasn't got past the last eight of any tournament since reaching the final of the World Grand Prix in January.
Judd Trump lamented the «manner» of his surprise 10-6 loss to Anthony McGill at the World Championship, saying that missing easy balls is «something that I don't really do anymore». Trump left himself with an uphill battle after the first session of the pair's encounter, trailing 6-3 to the Scot. Ad And though he fought hard to come back to 7-6 behind, McGill powered on from there to win three unanswered frames to take his place in the second round against Jack Lisowski, who beat Noppon Saengkham.
Judd Trump became the biggest casualty of the 2023 World Snooker Championship after falling to a 10-6 first-round defeat against Glasgow’s former semi-finalist Anthony McGill.
Judd Trump suffered a shock first-round defeat to Anthony McGill at the World Snooker Championship at the Crucible, going down 10-6 to end his hopes of winning a second world title this month. The 2019 champion looked like mounting a comeback having hauled himself back to within one frame of McGill, but the Scot surged ahead again to secure his victory. Ad The afternoon session had resumed with McGill holding a 6-3 lead and there was plenty of work for Trump to do, but he quickly made headway into the deficit.
Jack Lisowski advanced to the second round of the World Championship with a tense 10-7 victory over Noppon Saengkham at the Crucible. Lisowski had a 6-3 overnight lead in this first round encounter after making an electric start as he moved into a 2-1 lead. Ad Saengkham rallied well and made a reply to Lisowski's next two frames, but missed a number of chances to give Lisowski a three-frame overnight lead.
Lisowski 6-3 Saengkham (6-31) Ad Not for long: Jack runs out of position, then leaves a dolly to right-middle; can Noppon make this third chance count? Er, he overruns so has to play a cut-back red from on the top rail… he does so well… and he's looking a bit more controlled now.

But he cannot, missing a red to right corner… only for Jack to miss a blue to the green… only for Noppon to miss a cut-back red.
Well, that was quite an evening! Ad Mark Allen has given his reaction to Eurosport after the shocking moment when two protesters forced an abrupt halt to play on both tables at the World Championship with one of the tables left damaged as a result.
