Wilson sees off Jones to be crowned World Champion

England's Kyren Wilson has won the World Snooker Championship, beating Wales’ Jak Jones 18-14 in the final in Sheffield.

Jones said at the presentation ceremony: "Congratulations to Kyren and his family, they deserve it. If anyone deserves it he does, so congratulations to them.

"It's been an unbelievable tournament for me. About a month ago I was in my first qualifying match. It’s been a long month but I’m happy with it.

"I wouldn’t say (I came in) with a lot of hope. I just thought if I try my best, basically, see what happens. But when you’re playing someone as solid as Kyren, with such a good all-round game, it’s going to be hard to come back from a deficit like that so it wasn’t to be."
