Stephen Hendry defeated by O'Sullivan to win the eighth world snooker title

He now matches Stephen Hendry, who holds the record with seven titles. O'Sullivan was also the oldest person to win a global title with his win. Ronnie O'Sullivan was 6/1 for the tournament win, but he never looked at any danger against David Gilbert in the final.
O'Sullivan was leading by four frames during the evening session. He made a lewd gesture and then challenged an official. The official, Olivier Marteel, gave O'Sullivan a formal warning. O'Sullivan subsequently asked Olivier Marteel if he had checked the camera. O'Sullivan said that he saw nothing and was cleared. WPBSA is still investigating.
O'Sullivan wins four of the next five frames
O'Sullivan is ahead of Steve Davis, who is the world number 1, in the World Snooker Championship match. O'Sullivan's comfort levels are shocking to the six-time champion. Davis talks on BBC about the record-breaking seventh World title. Trump is trying to disrupt O'Sullivan's momentum. However, he eventually makes several errors and concedes the match.
Both Trump and O'Sullivan made mistakes in the beginning of the match. O'Sullivan made several costly errors in the opening session, but he was able to recover and win four of five frames. He broke the world record with frame 4's 85-point break. He is now only one frame away to matching Hendry’s seven world titles.
O'Sullivan claims victory in just one visit
He is the favorite to win the world championship in snooker this year. He is aiming at equaling the record of Stephen Hendry's seven titles. Hendry held the previous record, having won six titles between 1973-78. O'Sullivan is a world number one and is tipped to add another title before retiring. Ray Reardon was also beaten by O'Sullivan at 46. He won the 1978 World Title at 45.
When O'Sullivan failed to exit from the snooker during the final session, he was 5-2 up. Referee Olivier Marteel accused O'Sullivan in making a gesture. Trump however told him to wait until the frame was over before deciding. O'Sullivan then addressed Eurosport from the dressing room.
Trump's comeback in world snooker
Trump's long game was deteriorating and the match was in jeopardy for most of it. In the second half, he was down eight frames to five. O'Sullivan increased his lead with a frame of 87. Trump bounced back from the setback to pot a brilliant red in his next frame. Trump's cueball hit another red and went into the corner pocket. Trump's comeback was not over. The match went on, and the players traded frames until it reached 10-5.
Trump was happy to be under the pressure, but he could not take advantage of the opportunity. Trump's comeback to win the world snooker title was hampered by his lack of focus in the morning session. He was warned and looked unhappy when the evening session started. Trump threatened that he would continue his comeback, hitting a run at 73 but lost his concentration quickly. O'Sullivan regained some of his composure after the 10th frame but he needed to take a rest.
