Gary Wilson left baffled after stunning shot in Tour Championship doesn’t end up in pocket

Snooker fans were left in disbelief as Gary Wilson narrowly missed out on a jaw-dropping shot during the Tour Championship on Thursday. The Englishman, who recently won the Welsh Open and the Scottish Open, showcased his skills once again in a thrilling quarter-final match.

In a moment that had the crowd gasping, Wilson attempted a remarkable shot with side spin to avoid the green ball and pot the black. Despite his best efforts, the black ball ricocheted off the cushion and rolled away, leaving Wilson stunned and the spectators in awe.

However, Wilson managed to compose himself and went on to secure a spot in the semi-finals by defeating Anda Zhang. The 38-year-old will now face the legendary Ronnie O’Sullivan in what promises to be an exciting match-up.

Wilson’s impressive run in the tournament has seen him climb to No.6 in the seedings list and secure a guaranteed £40,000 for reaching the semi-finals. If he manages to defeat O’Sullivan, Wilson will face the winner of Mark Williams and Mark Allen in the final.

With a prize money of £150,000 for the tournament winner and £60,000 for the runner-up, the stakes are high for Wilson as he aims to add another ranking title to his collection. Snooker fans will be eagerly anticipating the outcome of the Tour Championship as the competition heats up.
