Kyren Wilson has once again shown his prowess on the snooker table as he dominated his first-round match against Dominic Dale at the World Snooker Championship in Sheffield. The former World Championship runner-up displayed exceptional form, storming into an impressive 8-1 lead with a series of impressive breaks.
Wilson, seeded twelfth, showcased his skill with breaks of 52, 75, 123, 96, 50, 77, and 73, leaving Dale struggling to keep up. Despite Dale managing a superb 120 clearance to win a frame, Wilson’s commanding performance has put him in a strong position to secure victory when the match resumes.
With a potential last 16 clash against Joe O’Connor on the horizon, Wilson will be looking to continue his impressive run at the Crucible. Meanwhile, England’s Jack Lisowski also put on a strong showing, holding a narrow 5-4 lead against Ding Junhui in a high-quality session.
In other matches, three-time world champion Mark Williams aims to move into the last 16 as he holds a 5-4 lead over Si Jiahui of China. A victory for Williams would set up an exciting all-Welsh tie against Jak Jones in the next round.
