Hello and welcome to snooker extra,

extended highlights of the 2018

0:00:360:00:42

Dafabet Masters, a battle between

two

0:00:420:00:49

two young snooker superstars. A

battle between Judd Trump and Kyren

0:00:490:00:53

Wilson.

0:00:530:01:00

Second frame, Kyren Wilson to break.

0:01:020:01:05

This time, the break of shot has put

a red next to the black, out of

0:01:200:01:24

commission.

0:01:240:01:33

APPLAUSE

0:01:330:01:41

Didn't want to collide with the

yellow, but he will be hoping that

0:02:150:02:19

doesn't cost him.

0:02:190:02:25

I think what Judd is doing these

days is he is playing the

0:02:410:02:45

percentages. That is always the best

way.

0:02:450:02:53

APPLAUSE

0:02:530:03:01

Excellent pot and a great safety

shot as well.

He is not on a baulk

0:03:020:03:10

colour, so...

Judd Trump, one.

0:03:100:03:20

colour, so...

Judd Trump, one.

It's

more like hard match play from Judd

0:03:200:03:22

Trump. Perhaps in his day he would

have gone for one of those long reds

0:03:220:03:27

and careered it in, but great to

watch how a player develops as they

0:03:270:03:32

stay in the game. And if he gets

success with it, as he's quite

0:03:320:03:37

rightly doing at the moment, why

not?

Well, I'll tell you what, he's

0:03:370:03:44

put Kyren in all sorts of trouble

here because there is no red near a

0:03:440:03:48

cushion that he can come off the

cushion and land on. He would love

0:03:480:03:54

to land on, the two near their black

spot, he would like to land by the

0:03:540:03:59

left one. Watch how many cushions he

has got to hit to get there. One,

0:03:590:04:07

two, three, four conditions and not

quite hard enough. But this is hard.

0:04:070:04:14

Yes, the cushion is playing slower

and also with new cloth, they also

0:04:140:04:18

slide a bit more as they come off

the cushion. So it is debatable

0:04:180:04:24

whether these angles are on. They

may have been yesterday. But now

0:04:240:04:30

with the slide of the third cushion

that he inevitably will get, the

0:04:300:04:33

line might not be there.

That's the

line's he's looking for... It is

0:04:330:04:47

just sliding off that third cushion.

That shot is not on, I don't think.

0:04:470:04:52

In hitting it harder, it won't make

much difference. Inevitably, going

0:04:520:05:01

down that line, he may leave a red

for Judd. That is better, about the

0:05:010:05:14

best he could do, but he hasn't got

the pace.

Well, he will do well to

0:05:140:05:22

find that line again because he was

so close to the green and he almost

0:05:220:05:25

caught the red on the left side of

the table.

Strangely, if he were to

0:05:250:05:31

flick that read on the left side of

the table, he might get away with

0:05:310:05:35

it. This time, he does clip that

read.

-- he does clip that red. And

0:05:350:05:47

it's not bad at all. There is one

possible pot to the right middle

0:05:470:05:56

pocket, but it's very, very

difficult. He did well to get out of

0:05:560:06:00

that situation, although it was his

fourth attempt. It's amazing how all

0:06:000:06:06

of a sudden from being in all sorts

of trouble, he's at the table with a

0:06:060:06:09

chance.

Yes, he left Judd immiscible

pot. -- a missable pot.

0:06:090:06:23

Tough to get that cue bought out

into open play.

0:06:300:06:34

Oh, he got the black out. What a

shot that is.

0:06:430:06:50

shot that is. Didn't think that was

possible, to get enough back spin on

0:06:520:06:57

and click the black out. What a

bonus.

0:06:570:07:01

The ready-mac by the Fluck spot --

the red by the black spot, it will

0:07:190:07:34

be interesting to see how it clears.

I think the ready-mac will interfere

0:07:340:07:38

with the black and it might not even

go on to its spot.

0:07:380:07:52

No, I don't think so. It can't be

touching the red if it's re-spotted.

0:08:050:08:14

Oh, don't tell me it goes on the

pink? No, it certainly doesn't go on

0:08:140:08:20

the pink. OK, so it's not the end of

the world. But at some stage, he'd

0:08:200:08:27

like that read of -- that red of the

black spot and the black back where

0:08:270:08:37

it belongs. That's the plan.

0:08:370:08:48

He hasn't got used to the speeds of

the cushions yet.

0:09:270:09:34

APPLAUSE

0:09:480:09:56

He's having to work hard for these.

He hasn't got himself into prime

0:09:560:10:03

position just yet. Can he manage it

this time?

0:10:030:10:06

Just overscrewed that one slightly

as well.

It's fascinating here from

0:10:160:10:20

the commentary box how you see the

game positionally. If he'd have

0:10:200:10:25

tried to get on the red by the black

spot on the opening blue, none of

0:10:250:10:30

these problems he's now got would

possibly have materialised. But he

0:10:300:10:36

is still fighting, keeping position.

0:10:360:10:46

On that red this time but not

ideally.

0:10:500:10:55

Oh, this is a good shot. Once again.

0:11:030:11:12

Just another six inches or so and

he'd have been perfect on the black

0:11:120:11:18

to get up to the reds. He might

still be able to do it. He's got, as

0:11:180:11:23

we keep saying, terrific key power.

He will get a short extension

0:11:230:11:29

they're just so he can reach this.

-- terrific cue power. There is an

0:11:290:11:34

awful lot of cue between his keen

hand and the object ball here. Look

0:11:340:11:42

at him striking that. ECB white stop

and then spin back. In fact, he has

0:11:420:11:50

hit it too well. He hardly hit this

but the action he got on it...

Yes,

0:11:500:11:56

putting that extra bit on the cue,

effectively making it heavier. You

0:11:560:12:01

get a bit more spin on the ball, if

you are not careful. So, end of

0:12:010:12:07

break and a frustrating break from

Kyren Wilson's perspective.

0:12:070:12:15

Kyren Wilson, 38.

APPLAUSE

0:12:290:12:34

Poor safety.

He'd love to knock this

one in, Judd, and punish him.

0:12:380:12:54

He's brought the read up this time.

He needs the brown to help him out

0:13:360:13:43

and I don't think it will. I think

Judd can get to this. This is a huge

0:13:430:13:51

day for Kyren Wilson. Semifinal of

the Masters. OK, he won a ranking

0:13:510:13:57

event a couple of seasons ago but

this is probably one of the biggest

0:13:570:14:02

matches of his career and you can

expect a little bit of tension

0:14:020:14:05

creeping in.

0:14:050:14:10

Judd was pretty clinical in his last

match, mopping up different

0:14:310:14:35

situations. Once again, underhit

here.

0:14:350:14:46

Just the right side of the blue and

an excellent shop there. That really

0:14:460:14:49

was good. Not only got that, got the

cue ball away from the kitchen. I

0:14:490:14:59

think he's looking in pretty good

nick, Judd Trump. He looks very

0:14:590:15:07

clinical in these positions at the

moment to me.

0:15:070:15:18

And that had to be controlled well.

It's run a little bit far. Oh!

0:15:580:16:09

It's run a little bit far. Oh! A

confident strike but he didn't get

0:16:090:16:14

enough screw back on that shot. It

died off the cushion, so tough now.

0:16:140:16:25

-- so a tough pot now. Oh, well

done.

0:16:250:16:36

done.

And a nice little flick to

beat.

0:16:360:16:42

Well, early days, but could this be

the new Judd Trump? A more

0:16:590:17:04

considered player but still lethal

amongst the balls at the end of a

0:17:040:17:10

frame. Oh, a kick. Awful. Awful.

Well, that's amazing.

Outrageous.

0:17:100:17:24

How crucial is that kick going to

be? That yellow's awkward and the

0:17:240:17:35

red with the rest is not a gimme. To

start things off with. But for

0:17:350:17:41

Kyren, this is a bonus, being at the

table.

0:17:410:17:50

table. He's got their like Shaun

Murphy with using the rest. He's

0:17:500:17:56

very, very good with the rest. It's

key he gets back up to the yellow

0:17:560:18:04

but wherever he finishes, he's going

to have a difficult yellow.

He is

0:18:040:18:10

guaranteed to be on the yellow, it's

just how. Two cushions nailed on,

0:18:100:18:16

but he wants to be as close as

possible with an angle.

0:18:160:18:24

possible with an angle.

Doesn't want

to be straight and he's got a bit of

0:18:240:18:26

an angle. But, a key pot coming up

here.

It's the worst type of angle.

0:18:260:18:38

The other side would have been nice.

APPLAUSE

0:18:380:18:53

Well, every chance now of pinching

this second frame.

0:18:530:19:01

this second frame. As I mentioned,

Kyren would have been in his seat

0:19:010:19:04

thinking, I'm 2-0 behind and then

suddenly Judd gets that horrendous

0:19:040:19:10

kick on the pink.

0:19:100:19:16

kick on the pink. Just blue and pink

needed and that's absolutely

0:19:170:19:21

perfect.

0:19:210:19:25

And we always say you never settle

down until you get your first frame

0:19:270:19:33

on the board. Judd was very, very

unfortunate there.

0:19:330:19:44

unfortunate there. But Kyren Wilson

took that opportunity. Very own

0:19:440:19:47

lucky to get the kick on the pink

but he's got his first frame on the

0:19:470:19:51

board and we are all square at one

frame each.

0:19:510:19:58

Tough to pot that and get on the

black, assuming he was playing the

0:21:120:21:16

pot. That's a nice safety shot from

Judd Trump.

0:21:160:21:23

Judd Trump. Cut of the escape path

down the right-hand side of the

0:21:230:21:26

table and left Kyren with a tricky

safety shot back. He's got to catch

0:21:260:21:36

this outside red pretty thin to

avoid wobbling in the jaws of the

0:21:360:21:40

top left corner pocket.

0:21:400:21:45

top left corner pocket. Can just

dump the cue ball onto the top

0:21:450:21:48

question and looks like that's

probably the right shot, containing

0:21:480:21:52

safety.

0:21:520:21:57

What a great shot this is. I think

Kyren played the safety shot the

0:22:290:22:43

wrong way. He should have played

across the face of the red and he

0:22:430:22:48

wouldn't have left that one on, but

I don't suppose he even thought

0:22:480:22:51

about the red into the middle

pocket.

0:22:510:22:57

pocket. He is playing great match

snicker at the moment, Judd. We go

0:22:590:23:05

on about it, but I'm very impressed.

-- great match snicker.

0:23:050:23:13

That's a shocker from Judd. Tudor

cross-bat one. Ill go back to his

0:23:210:23:27

seat and he will not be very pleased

as we show that again. -- cued

0:23:270:23:39

across that one. Judd will go back

to his seat and he will not be very

0:23:390:23:49

pleased as we show that again.

He

doesn't seem to get as well online

0:23:490:23:56

as well he is punching them there.

This is tough. Bridging over that

0:23:560:24:04

red is making this shot a lot

harder.

0:24:040:24:07

Well, terrific cueing from that

awkward

0:24:140:24:21

awkward position and a positioning

shot as well.

0:24:210:24:24

Lots of side to swing the white up

towards that red and he's played it

0:24:310:24:35

pretty well.

0:24:350:24:38

He wanted slightly more angle on the

red and he could have cannoned into

0:24:580:25:04

their pack. You might still be able

to do it. Yes, he was. That

0:25:040:25:10

developed another... Well,

definitely one more red.

This would

0:25:100:25:18

be nice for Kyren Wilson, to make a

telling break here, punish Judd for

0:25:180:25:23

the mistake. Make a statement.

0:25:230:25:26

He just couldn't open those reds up

as nicely from that straight on

0:25:320:25:35

position. Got a bit more movement of

the pack, so still some work to do

0:25:350:25:41

in that department.

0:25:410:25:45

If he got the correct angle, the

blue wouldn't be a bad one to go

0:25:530:25:59

into the pack from, but I don't

think he's got it here.

0:25:590:26:05

Yes, it's time for Kyren to go to

work, because his highest break so

0:26:120:26:22

far has been 38. And he's just hit

that harder than he wanted. He

0:26:220:26:30

should have been better on this red

for the right middle pocket.

He

0:26:300:26:34

could have played for the red on the

left-hand side cushion first there

0:26:340:26:40

but chose this shot. Well out of

position, isn't he, Dennis?

That's a

0:26:400:26:45

great recovery.

0:26:450:26:51

great recovery. Now, one good shot,

as we show you this terrific pot

0:26:510:26:55

from that angle, one good cannon

here and he can really open the

0:26:550:26:59

game.

0:26:590:27:08

He played that almost perfectly,

other than overheating at a fraction

0:27:110:27:15

will stop but that was

understandable. -- overheating at a

0:27:150:27:20

fraction.

0:27:200:27:25

Just cleared the cue ball from the

red Pivac. -- reds. Nicely played. A

0:27:250:27:36

greater chance now. You get the

feeling he must convert. He has to

0:27:360:27:42

start stamping his authority on this

match.

0:27:420:27:48

If he can win this frame, Judd will

have something to think about after

0:28:190:28:24

missing a centre of a red into the

left corner.

0:28:240:28:31

left corner. -- after missing a

certain red. This was the one here.

0:28:320:28:43

He screwed the back just a little

further than he intended. He still

0:28:430:28:48

got an angle. It means he has to hit

it harder.

0:28:480:28:57

He played well. -- he played it

well. Tantalisingly close to the

0:29:030:29:13

finishing line in this frame. A

couple of reds and he is over the

0:29:130:29:19

line.

0:29:190:29:24

Just hoping for a good split here.

0:29:360:29:48

Lost the cue ball.

0:29:500:29:53

Well, this is a key pot coming up.

It is a very difficult one. He just

0:30:010:30:08

needs the red to be -- to leave Judd

needing a snooker.

0:30:080:30:17

Terrific cueing! You can't hit the

ball any better than that from up

0:30:260:30:39

the cushion. We would call that a

John Parrott special. He was one of

0:30:390:30:45

the best in the business on the

cushion.

0:30:450:30:53

He will be feeling much better now

my Kyren. This is more like it.

0:31:000:31:05

Winning the frame with one visit.

0:31:050:31:11

A wee bit unlucky. It just means it

will be very difficult to make the

0:31:180:31:26

century unless he can cut this one

into the right corner. He will not

0:31:260:31:33

be too concerned about that.

0:31:330:31:39

be too concerned about that. Kyren

Wilson did what he had to do and won

0:31:390:31:43

the framework one visit with that

break of 81. He is just one behind

0:31:430:31:48

now.

0:31:480:31:55

Not a break -- not a great break-off

shot by Kyren.

0:32:150:32:24

shot by Kyren. It is an amazing

game, isn't it? He missed a certain

0:32:260:32:31

red in the previous game and then

gets down and knocks that in as if

0:32:310:32:35

it was over the pocket.

He floated

that one in. Nothing wrong with

0:32:350:32:41

judging the cue action on that shot.

0:32:410:32:46

A nice way to get the confidence up

again after missing a

0:33:150:33:18

straightforward shot would be to get

a big break year. -- here. It is one

0:33:180:33:31

of the great attributes all the top

players have, resilience, great

0:33:310:33:35

temperament.

0:33:350:33:41

A little bit short of pace for ideal

position on the blue to go into the

0:34:020:34:07

pack at speed. He would have to

really annihilate this. It was

0:34:070:34:16

harder than to get an ideal contact

on that pack.

0:34:160:34:26

on that pack. It looks like the end

of break. There is a red that goes.

0:34:280:34:43

He played it with safety in mind, as

you can see.

0:34:430:34:56

Good safety needed here. Judd might

well be is playing the same shot but

0:35:150:35:27

this red will go to the right corner

area. A good cue ball once again.

0:35:270:35:35

Played a different shot. He was a

bit unlucky to get that read coming

0:35:350:35:38

over there. -- red. It was nothing

he could have foreseen.

Well, it is

0:35:380:35:47

all about the cue ball, this. He is

pretty good of this type of pot. He

0:35:470:35:52

is a long way. You would think he

would be guaranteed to be on a

0:35:520:35:59

colour. But looking at the red

first.

0:35:590:36:07

first. He is on a colour and he has

not a red over the pocket. He will

0:36:120:36:16

settle for this.

Yes, you will have

to settle for that, although the

0:36:160:36:23

black might go through past red.

0:36:230:36:31

black might go through past red. --

past the red. If it does, he could

0:36:310:36:40

very quickly get the black back on

its spot. He has refused to play red

0:36:400:36:47

and blue here.

0:36:470:36:57

Is he would like to have been a bit

closer to the black than this body

0:36:590:37:03

didn't really have the angle. So

this isn't 100% certain.

0:37:030:37:17

I think here -- it is three he has

missed with the rest.

0:37:220:37:32

missed with the rest. I'm surprised

he has missed that many. The initial

0:37:320:37:38

green wasn't very good, to be

honest. He could have got closer do

0:37:380:37:43

things. Excellent shot from Judd

Trump.

0:37:430:37:51

Trump. So the mind games start. Can

Judd punish Kyren for a mistake?

0:37:510:37:57

Relatively simple at this level.

0:37:570:38:03

Never in doubt. I'm not too sure he

can get that side of the table from

0:38:290:38:36

this shot. He could risk going into

the pack. Players wouldn't like to

0:38:360:38:46

do that, gambling on the outcome. He

can get past the pink, so that is

0:38:460:38:51

OK.

0:38:510:38:57

This is Judd's Aids appearance at

the Masters. He has had two

0:39:380:39:41

semifinals. -- a appearance.

0:39:410:39:45

I can't see what happened in the

previous frame happen here.

0:40:070:40:15

You could see when he pushed the cue

through, he got across it a little

0:40:210:40:27

bit. But that is the way he has

always played. He is a natural

0:40:270:40:31

talent, Judd.

0:40:310:40:38

talent, Judd.

It would be nigh on

impossible for Judd Trump now to go

0:40:390:40:43

back to basics and rectify that.

0:40:430:40:53

back to basics and rectify that. It

makes a mockery of the technique

0:40:530:40:55

book, doesn't it? A bit out of

position on this one. But over the

0:40:550:41:03

line and a good response from Judd

Trump.

0:41:030:41:09

Trump. Effortlessly really has put

this frame to bed.

0:41:110:41:24

this frame to bed. I must admit, I

get the feeling that whilst of

0:41:260:41:31

course every player comes here

hoping to win the event, Judd Trump

0:41:310:41:34

has come here looking to win this

Masters, not hoping.

0:41:340:41:45

He had his chance there.

0:42:010:42:11

We have had 24 centuries in this

year's Masters.

0:42:140:42:21

year's Masters. Judd has had two

centuries already. This will be his

0:42:240:42:26

third.

0:42:260:42:31

third. He has made 504 centuries in

his career. He made 70 centuries

0:42:310:42:40

last season. Already on 45 this

season. One of the game's greatest

0:42:400:42:47

break-builders here.

0:42:470:42:52

Just a wee bit short on the pink.

Will he play some naughty snooker to

0:43:000:43:05

get on the black? Of course he will.

All the way around. He needs to hit

0:43:050:43:10

that a bit harder.

0:43:100:43:15

that a bit harder. Get in black. It

might go on the other... Oh well.

0:43:180:43:27

Another century break. Kyren made

one mistake and Judd made that break

0:43:270:43:35

of 96. He now leads by two frames.

4-2.

0:43:350:43:45

This time he has made a good break

option. He hasn't left the one for

0:44:010:44:05

the left corner.

0:44:050:44:13

the left corner.

Yeah, he is putting

a bit more pace into the break off.

0:44:130:44:23

Very rarely do you put your opponent

under pressure from the break off.

0:44:230:44:30

But this is tough for Kyren.

0:44:300:44:37

But this is tough for Kyren. He has

to be pleased with that.

0:44:370:44:45

to be pleased with that.

Judd just

tapping the table because Kyren have

0:44:450:44:49

to play that with some side to

swerve it.

Judd has got the same

0:44:490:44:54

type of shot should he so wished.

0:44:540:45:01

type of shot should he so wished. --

wish. He caught it a bit thicker.

0:45:010:45:11

wish. He caught it a bit thicker. On

first glance may be an even bigger

0:45:110:45:16

problem for Kyren from this shot.

How on earth can he get back down

0:45:160:45:23

the table?

0:45:230:45:28

the table? I can't see a path.

He

may have to come off a couple of

0:45:290:45:34

cushions. He could come off B-side

cushion.

0:45:340:45:43

cushion. -- B-side cushion. He is

giving it some thought. What has he

0:45:430:45:47

decided?

I think two cautions to hit

the red by the black spot will

0:45:470:45:56

probably be OK.

0:45:560:46:00

probably be OK. -- cushion. Let's

see what re-spotted. -- what has he

0:46:010:46:12

spotted? He could drop on its dead

weight. Make sure it doesn't roll

0:46:120:46:17

off. It has a fraction. I thought

for a minute he had left a red and

0:46:170:46:26

underhit it.

0:46:260:46:33

Now that Judd knows what Kyren is

going to play,

0:46:340:46:41

going to play, he probably expect

him to get it right this time. The

0:46:410:46:45

ball might have rolled off a

fraction. But then could be on a

0:46:450:46:48

finger mark.

He has got to be

absolutely spot on with it.

He was

0:46:480:46:59

more or less playing full ball onto

the red to the left of the pink. I'm

0:46:590:47:04

not sure that white is exactly the

same position.

0:47:040:47:11

same position.

We have got a top

referee.

0:47:120:47:18

referee. He will play the same shot

again. He could hit it a bit harder

0:47:200:47:25

and he would still be OK.

0:47:250:47:32

and he would still be OK.

Let's see

if Kyren can play the role again. --

0:47:320:47:43

the roll up again successfully. What

is he looking at here? Not a 3-ball

0:47:430:47:53

plant, surely? That is a route to

madness, isn't it?

0:47:530:48:00

madness, isn't it?

If he played the

same shot...

Then you get another

0:48:050:48:10

goal added. It looks like he is

playing a different shot. Not a

0:48:100:48:14

3-ball plant, surely not?

Attention

all pockets. He is taking this on.

0:48:140:48:27

He should have definitely played the

same shot again. Why take that on?

0:48:590:49:12

Even though there was a disturbance

to Kyren macro concentration, it was

0:49:150:49:20

more the decision to take the plant

on which was questionable. I just

0:49:200:49:27

didn't think it was the correct

shot.

0:49:270:49:33

shot. The plant is either guaranteed

to be on or not.

0:49:330:49:40

to be on or not. A great chance for

Judd Trump to put the boot in. OK,

0:49:420:49:50

the black spot is tied up a bit.

0:49:500:49:58

Judd Trump clinically going about

his work here.

0:50:530:51:00

his work here. He has got a few

problems to solve later on.

0:51:040:51:11

He got a big bounce off the cushion

there. He is still OK. Every chance

0:51:180:51:24

to go into a 5-2 lead. Kyren Wilson

would have to win all remaining

0:51:240:51:29

frames. He has led the white slip

further away. -- left. No problem

0:51:290:51:39

with the pot. It just means a little

bit more to do with the cue ball.

0:51:390:51:48

Well, out of position and not as

easy as it looks on our TV screen. A

0:52:160:52:24

tough shot, this. Made to

0:52:240:52:33

tough shot, this. Made to look a lot

easier than it was across the table.

0:52:340:52:43

What a shot he has played there.

It

was all a bit congested there. He

0:53:010:53:11

picked a nice one out. He has got

choices. The gambling -- bring the

0:53:110:53:15

black into play. He can play for the

pink. He had options. With a 52

0:53:150:53:21

point that advantage he didn't want

to be risking that cannon.

0:53:210:53:29

He has suddenly moved up a gear,

Judd Trump. He did that against

0:53:370:53:43

Shaun Murphy, finished that match in

fine style.

0:53:430:53:51

I really do think Kyren should have

had one more go rolling up to the

0:53:510:53:56

red before he played the plant. OK,

he is guaranteed to have won the

0:53:560:54:05

frame, Judd.

0:54:050:54:14

frame, Judd.

Just had a quick glance

at the scoreboard. One more red and

0:54:140:54:18

colour would be enough.

0:54:180:54:27

colour would be enough. He has left

himself with a tricky thing. But

0:54:270:54:30

once again, just glancing at the

scoreboard. 66 in front. Still a

0:54:300:54:39

possible 67 on the table.

0:54:390:54:45

And that is the frame.

0:54:510:54:56

He has run out of position but it

doesn't really matter at this stage.

0:55:230:55:32

Balls all over the table. But that

doesn't matter. He got an unexpected

0:55:320:55:42

chance. That break of 69 extends

Judd Trump's lead. He only needs one

0:55:420:55:49

more frame to get into the final.

0:55:490:55:55

Kyren gets the eighth frame on the

way. He has got to win four in a

0:56:030:56:10

row. A very tall order.

0:56:100:56:17

Always a nice trap, using one of the

side baulk colours and the blue,

0:56:530:56:58

cutting off one of the escape lines.

0:56:580:57:04

File under miss. Judd Trump, four.

0:57:160:57:23

Well, Judd might come to the table

because as a left-hander, he can

0:57:230:57:27

come to the table and is done that

into the top left. That looks... Oh,

0:57:270:57:36

no, it's just going to the right. It

was sort of a free shot.

0:57:360:57:49

He has left Kyren something to tempt

him into the left pocket. It would

0:57:570:58:05

be a good shot to pot this and get

onto baulk colour.

0:58:050:58:14

There are no guarantees that Judd

will play for the pot.

0:58:300:58:42

Kyren had another look earlier at a

plant from the side cushion. Now he

0:58:500:58:57

has

0:58:570:59:03

has spotted three-ball plant,

fourball plant? There is a fourball

0:59:030:59:06

line-up but it's never going to go

in? Perhaps he is checking from the

0:59:060:59:10

safety perspective, but it's not a

tough safety shot he has got.

Yes,

0:59:100:59:20

the black is in an awkward spot to

come down the left side of the

0:59:200:59:24

table.

0:59:240:59:28

That's whyhe has gone down the other

side of the table but he has hit it

0:59:360:59:45

far too thick.

He has been lucky to

get away with this. He dropped his

0:59:450:59:50

head as he played the shot.

0:59:500:59:58

head as he played the shot. Judd

looks like he can play is done to

0:59:581:00:00

the same -- play our stunt shot and

get back to the same position. That

1:00:001:00:12

brown is blocking the path quite

nicely. Judd is playing some good

1:00:121:00:17

safety here.

1:00:171:00:27

Yes, he has cut off the escape

route. That brown is preventing it.

1:00:281:00:32

He needs to be careful here not to

catch the black.

1:00:321:00:38

He knows that the fourball is lined

up might send one over that right

1:00:501:00:55

corner pocket. He has got a couple

of problems here.

1:00:551:01:09

of problems here. He played that

shot. He looked at it a few times

1:01:091:01:14

and in the end, well, you don't see

it very often, but that was a

1:01:141:01:18

fourball plant you just witnessed.

It didn't look like it went from

1:01:181:01:25

behind the pocket. If it was that

certain, he could have played it at

1:01:251:01:30

an earlier stage, I suppose. Perhaps

he was wary of playing another

1:01:301:01:33

plant.

1:01:331:01:37

Very difficult to score many, the

way the colours are. The reds are

1:01:441:01:50

not badly positioned, but the pink

is out of commission. The black is

1:01:501:01:56

way up the table. If he could get

that, it would go back on its spot

1:01:561:02:00

but it is far from straightforward.

1:02:001:02:09

A wee bit unlucky to drop back into

that position. He has got the yellow

1:02:191:02:23

as an alternative.

Yes, one ball

less travelling and he could have

1:02:231:02:30

ported the blue and tried to develop

the pink.

1:02:301:02:34

It would be nice to get the black on

the spot from this shot. I don't

1:02:481:02:53

think you can, but...

1:02:531:03:02

think you can, but... By no means

guaranteed the right way to go about

1:03:021:03:06

things, but he can keep on playing

on the blue. It is just that black

1:03:061:03:14

is nicer if it is on the spot.

1:03:141:03:18

Yes, it looks as if he has finished

straight on the blue so he can leave

1:03:491:03:54

that read to the left corner, but it

means he has a little bit more work

1:03:541:03:58

to do with the positional side of

things here. It's all about keeping

1:03:581:04:02

it as simple as possible for

yourself.

1:04:021:04:06

And that's what can happen when you

are just running slightly out of

1:04:191:04:23

position. He just lost a bit of

confidence, he has lost it a bit at

1:04:231:04:32

the moment, hasn't he, Kyren?

Yes,

he has had a tough day to day. He

1:04:321:04:38

hasn't controlled the cue as much as

normal and maybe has mind hasn't

1:04:381:04:43

been as focused as it needs to be in

such an important semifinal.

1:04:431:04:54

His head's scrambled a bit. He needs

to clear it but he is out there,

1:04:591:05:08

unfortunately. What is he playing

here? A deep long screw back. Well,

1:05:081:05:13

he played it in such a way that he

hoped the only ball he could leave

1:05:131:05:18

was that red. He made a good fist of

it, but...

There is a gap to get

1:05:181:05:28

round on the blue of this red here.

Oh, he has caught the other red. And

1:05:281:05:35

look where he has finished. He has

snookered himself. He has got to be

1:05:351:05:41

a bit careful with that red up the

other end of the table. He was just

1:05:411:05:46

a fraction away. If he had found the

gap there, he would have been

1:05:461:05:51

perfect on the blue.

I think he can

get through to the yellow of the

1:05:511:05:58

side cushion and I think it would be

a hard pot for Kyren into the middle

1:05:581:06:05

pocket at worst. If he hits the

yellow, the cue ball will naturally

1:06:051:06:13

travel on further and he could

easily get the snooker behind pink

1:06:131:06:18

and brown.

1:06:181:06:21

I think, I'm sure he can get just

past the middle pocket and hit

1:06:251:06:30

yellow. He could play the swerve but

no real need, I don't think.

1:06:301:06:41

no real need, I don't think. Perhaps

the middle pocket is in the way.

1:06:411:06:46

Good shot.

APPLAUSE

1:06:461:06:53

Kyren will want to move that read

away from the middle pocket area. If

1:07:011:07:05

he can get to it, it is a difficult

pot.

1:07:051:07:13

It's not often you see the reds all

up this end of the table and the

1:07:241:07:30

colours or up the other end of the

table.

1:07:301:07:35

Wow. Well, we will never know how

that would have panned out had he

1:08:041:08:15

hit it properly, but he was I

allowed with the pot. If he had hit

1:08:151:08:19

more of the red, he would have

screwed the cue ball back into

1:08:191:08:25

baulk. But why give an opponent on

the ropes a chance backing? -- a

1:08:251:08:38

chance back in? That looked, on the

face of it, to be as crazy the shot

1:08:381:08:48

as Kyren played earlier but then

again, he was a long way out with

1:08:481:08:52

the pot.

1:08:521:08:55

You'd think that Kyren's got to take

this very now by the scruff of the

1:08:591:09:03

neck. Try to salvage something from

the match, use it as a springboard,

1:09:031:09:10

but it's not the best chance in the

world.

1:09:101:09:17

world. He should be able to get

enough points though.

1:09:201:09:32

Yes, just keep taking blues.

1:09:401:09:43

He has overhit that by quite a way.

Yes, going to have to take the

1:09:561:10:02

yellow now. That was the last thing

on his mind there.

Well, position

1:10:021:10:09

the league, Kyren's been quite a

week today.

1:10:091:10:22

While, he's got another one with the

rest.

He hasn't been particularly

1:10:331:10:39

successful with it today, whereas

normally he is. 50% at the moment.

1:10:391:10:49

That's more like it.

1:10:501:10:56

That's more like it. And he can get

onto the blue to stun up to the reds

1:10:561:11:03

that are on the black spot. He was

handed a golden opportunity by Judd

1:11:031:11:11

after that very difficult to read

that he took on when he scattered

1:11:111:11:14

all over the table.

1:11:141:11:19

all over the table. Lots of reverse

side on that and didn't he play that

1:11:201:11:24

well? That's such a difficult job to

execute.

1:11:241:11:39

execute. You can see he hits it with

right-hand side as it hits the

1:11:391:11:43

cushion and spins away towards the

blue.

1:11:431:11:49

He has took these well.

1:11:591:12:03

That means that Judd is up to a

Snickers required stage. This one to

1:12:081:12:17

make absolutely certain.

1:12:171:12:28

make absolutely certain.

He is not

out of this match yet.

1:12:281:12:39

Judd has played the percentages all

the way through this match so far.

1:12:491:12:52

That was the first brush one he took

on and he has paid the price. -- the

1:12:521:12:59

first brush one.

1:12:591:13:03

APPLAUSE

1:13:101:13:15

The white's close. The white's very

close. That was a brilliant double.

1:13:241:13:37

It doesn't matter about that. He

will be more than delighted. Judd

1:13:371:13:43

gave him a chance and he took it

with both hands and with that break

1:13:431:13:49

of 57, he keeps himself in this

semifinal but he still trails by

1:13:491:13:54

five frames to three.

1:13:541:13:57

This is a big, big day for Kyren,

second time at the Masters, a chance

1:14:241:14:30

of the final. This will tell

something, this shot here.

1:14:301:14:35

Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant at!

He needs the white to pull up though

1:14:351:14:41

and it hasn't.

1:14:411:14:48

and it hasn't. Well, as Judd looks

on, Kyren's faced with a brown that

1:14:481:14:55

is not the right angle to pot and

get up the table. He is now looking

1:14:551:15:01

at the yellow and all of a sudden,

he must be feeling very confident if

1:15:011:15:05

he is going to take this on. What a

shot this is.

It's an easy roll-up

1:15:051:15:11

but he feels he's not going to get

any advantage, so he's really going

1:15:111:15:17

for the jugular here. Great shot.

APPLAUSE

1:15:171:15:22

Absolutely full marks for trying to

make something happen here, trying

1:15:271:15:31

to get Judd Trump off-balance. Look

at the chance he's created for

1:15:311:15:40

himself here. Worth another look at

this and played it with a touch of

1:15:401:15:44

side to make sure he got on the red.

1:15:441:15:47

5-4, then there is pressure on Judd.

1:15:521:15:57

It's become a fascinating moment in

this match now.

1:16:031:16:09

this match now. And Kyren's sensing

that there is a little bit of

1:16:121:16:15

momentum swinging his way.

1:16:151:16:23

Although Judd leads the head-to-head

4-2, Kyren, when he won the Shanghai

1:16:411:16:48

Masters, he beat Judd Trump 10-9 in

the final.

Maybe he has got that on

1:16:481:16:56

his mind to help him along.

1:16:561:17:02

Couldn't really playback shot in any

way to pot the red and open up any

1:17:211:17:28

more reds. He has got to disturb the

pack off of the black out. He needs

1:17:281:17:32

an angle low on it. He has done that

well. And stunning into the

1:17:321:17:39

right-hand side as we look. Not a

screw back, more of a stun shot,

1:17:391:17:46

keeping the cue ball in open play.

So not too low on the white ball.

1:17:461:17:57

So not too low on the white ball. It

is a hard shot stunning in than

1:17:571:18:00

screwing in for some reason.

Well,

he did hit the cardinal sin. He took

1:18:001:18:09

his eye off the pot but listen, as

he bowed his head, if he looks back

1:18:091:18:15

at the table, he hasn't left

anything for Judd. He's got away

1:18:151:18:18

with it. He's had a result there.

And what a result he has had.

1:18:181:18:26

He'd perhaps like to get this cue

ball down into this corner where he

1:18:411:18:45

is judging now, hide that red with

the blue.

He can't come to that red.

1:18:451:18:56

That's why everything was safe. A

bit short of pace. Has he got away

1:18:561:18:59

with that? He has left a gap. Can

you believe it?

Well, all of seven,

1:18:591:19:10

the wheels have gone a bit wobbly in

Judd Trump's card. -- all of the

1:19:101:19:18

sudden, the wheels have gone a bit

wobbly on Judd Trump's cart. I think

1:19:181:19:28

you would expect the way Kyren

Wilson is approaching this game,

1:19:281:19:33

he's going to knock this in. He has

got nothing to lose.

Oh, you can't

1:19:331:19:41

believe it, they are coming down the

steps, right in the line of sight as

1:19:411:19:46

well.

Bad timing.

1:19:461:19:52

APPLAUSE

1:19:571:20:01

Well, one safety in but boring --

but more importantly, perfect on the

1:20:071:20:17

blue. Well, every chance now and

Judd will have to do is sit there

1:20:171:20:22

and ponder.

1:20:221:20:24

What a match to turn around this

would be for Kyren Wilson.

1:20:411:20:53

One frame at a time, of course, but

he is looking a lot happier and a

1:20:541:20:59

lot more comfortable amongst the

walls and he was earlier.

1:20:591:21:06

walls and he was earlier.

Well, I

mentioned before the match started

1:21:071:21:12

how mentally strong Kyren Wilson is

and he feels he can beat anyone in

1:21:121:21:16

the game. He's got a great attitude.

A very modest fellow but with

1:21:161:21:20

regards to snooker, he feels he can

beat anyone in the game and he's

1:21:201:21:26

just let that slip away just a

fraction too far. That's what he

1:21:261:21:31

thinks of it. He was only a couple

of pots away from clinching this

1:21:311:21:38

frame. This is a tricky one. He's

quite close to it. A delicate little

1:21:381:21:42

shocked. Well played both.

APPLAUSE

1:21:421:21:52

Glancing round at the scoreboard. He

will need another red after the

1:21:521:21:56

pink.

1:21:561:21:58

That's in. Amazing game, snooker. It

wasn't that long ago it looked like

1:22:061:22:18

Kyren Wilson had lost the plot of it

here today and all of a sudden, with

1:22:181:22:22

a little bit of help from Judd

Trump, he has focused again.

1:22:221:22:33

There are 59 points on the table and

he has got a 66 point advantage. And

1:22:551:23:05

Judd stays in his seat, so Kyren

Wilson is on his way back again.

1:23:051:23:13

That's another frame he takes and

he's only one behind an hour. 5-4,

1:23:131:23:20

game on.

1:23:201:23:23

Everything is safe. Judd just having

a look to see if he would push a red

1:24:561:25:00

over the right corner. You've always

got to be aware of that.

1:25:001:25:10

got to be aware of that. Well, he

has pushed one toward the... He

1:25:101:25:14

didn't want the white to go into the

middle at that angle, that was

1:25:141:25:22

amazing. And he did push a red

towards the right corner, so every

1:25:221:25:27

chance for Kyren.

Yes, I am not sure

he played that red. He played the

1:25:271:25:34

one before it. It's all going Kyren

Wilson's where the moment, it seems.

1:25:341:25:45

-- way at the moment.

APPLAUSE

1:25:451:25:56

Aggressive shot from Kyren Wilson

and unlucky not to get an easier

1:25:561:26:01

leave than this.

He would hope to be

on the blue, possibly the black if

1:26:011:26:06

he had got the right split from the

reds.

But he is in attacking made at

1:26:061:26:11

the moment and I am sure he will

take this green on to get back up to

1:26:111:26:15

the reds. There is one there, maybe

too available.

1:26:151:26:21

And that's played perfectly and if

it comes far enough, he can pot base

1:26:271:26:34

and nudge the other red away from

the blue. This is the best he has

1:26:341:26:39

looked in the match, the last couple

of friends. -- the last couple of

1:26:391:26:46

frames.

1:26:461:26:49

I think he will probably play for

the red below the blue and then try

1:26:571:27:03

to get a better angle on

1:27:031:27:09

to get a better angle on

-- on the

blue.

He is not nicely placed on the

1:27:131:27:26

red Mac. He would have liked to go

in from the left, so overscrewed

1:27:261:27:40

that blew somewhat. A big shot now

coming up. Kyren Wilson's prepared

1:27:401:27:45

himself well.

This is the line he

has got. He doesn't want to hit the

1:27:451:27:53

pink.

Misjudged. Oh, he is on it.

What a massive fluke that is. If he

1:27:531:28:07

has the ability to develop these

balls from that position, that is an

1:28:071:28:14

enormous stroke of luck. OK, the pot

is not guaranteed, but if he plays

1:28:141:28:21

it with screw back, big shot.

1:28:211:28:29

You could see him winding the cue

up. He has missed a few with the

1:28:331:28:39

rest. He has potted some terrific

ones with the rest in the last

1:28:391:28:43

couple of frames. Ten out of ten for

that.

1:28:431:28:54

He would have liked to have been

slightly closer to this cushion. How

1:29:031:29:08

this match has turned around. There

was nothing to suggest that Kyren

1:29:081:29:13

Wilson would get back in this match,

the way that he was looking.

1:29:131:29:21

For all of the considered snooker

that Judd Trump had played onto that

1:29:301:29:34

one rash shot, it is that one shot

that everybody is talking about. And

1:29:341:29:43

even more so should Kyren Wilson

somehow win this match.

1:29:431:29:48

That will do nicely. The cannon on

the pink.

1:29:591:30:10

He maybe got a little bit of a kick

there. But he is OK. Yeah, one shot

1:30:181:30:24

can turn a match on its head. We

showed you a few times the one that

1:30:241:30:31

Judd had a go at. It certainly has

changed things. He has not had a

1:30:311:30:37

chance since then.

1:30:371:30:43

chance since then. What has he done

here? Is it OK? I think it is. All

1:30:441:30:48

of a sudden, he is getting the

little nudges and the run of the

1:30:481:30:55

ball. He quite deserves it, the way

he has played in the last couple of

1:30:551:30:59

frames.

1:30:591:31:05

Just a bit of a distraction, that

red.

1:31:201:31:26

Well, who knows what is going to

happen in the rest of this match?

1:31:321:31:36

When you look back at careers,

sometimes there are massive moments.

1:31:361:31:45

In terms of home matches shape up.

Should Kyren Wilson get out of this

1:31:451:31:51

match and go on to succeed in the

final, looking back on his career in

1:31:511:31:55

years to come macro, sliding doors.

-- to come.

1:31:551:32:08

Already 49er head. -- 49 ahead.

1:32:111:32:25

Definitely worrying times for Judd.

And great, isn't it, to win this in

1:32:251:32:35

one visit, to keep the heat on Judd

Trump.

He is showing a great deal of

1:32:351:32:41

character, Kyren. He really is.

He

is finishing really strongly.

1:32:411:32:53

What's a last frame this could be,

assuming he gets over the line.

He

1:33:031:33:07

is looking for one more red after

the black.

He has got the red into

1:33:071:33:15

the yellow pocket as a last resort.

1:33:151:33:21

One good long pot and we are going

to be all square. What a comeback.

1:33:271:33:38

It is they're. -- it's there.

1:33:431:33:50

That was Kyren's parents who got a

glimpse of. -- you got a glimpse of.

1:33:591:34:08

There they are. How proud will they

be seeing this comeback?

1:34:081:34:16

The crowd are absolutely loving this

comeback.

1:34:371:34:43

Judd's parents know he is still in

with a good shout. It is going to be

1:34:561:35:02

the toss of a coin. But at the

moment the momentum is all with

1:35:021:35:06

Kyren.

I don't think anybody has

doubted his pedigree. He has not had

1:35:061:35:14

a great game in the early part of

this match. He was sadly out with

1:35:141:35:23

his positional play. But he stuck at

his job and all of a sudden his

1:35:231:35:27

temperament has really held up.

He was given a lifeline by Judd

1:35:271:35:37

Trump.

1:35:371:35:43

Trump. And all of a sudden you think

that Judd would like to play that

1:35:431:35:47

shot again. Three seems -- three

frames seem to have evaporated. Now

1:35:471:35:54

he is trying to get rid of the

thoughts that that shot has ruined

1:35:541:35:58

his chance of getting to the final.

One more frame. You have got to say

1:35:581:36:04

the favoured now is Kyren Wilson. --

favourite.

We have a 24 centuries so

1:36:041:36:12

far this year. Make that 25. What a

time to produce it. His 30th century

1:36:121:36:23

this season. They are loving this.

What an exciting finish we are going

1:36:231:36:33

to have to this first semifinal.

I

think both players will go Hoedt

1:36:331:36:39

now. Who is your money on for the

final frame?

1:36:391:36:47

final frame?

That magnificent break

of 107 has completed the comeback.

1:36:471:36:53

Kyren Wilson is all square with Judd

Trump.

1:36:531:36:55

It is 5-5.

1:36:551:36:58

He will weigh up the situation and

if we can't see any easy safety

1:37:421:37:51

shot... Is he playing the safety

shot? Yeah. Just the safety shot.

1:37:511:37:58

And quite rightly so.

1:37:581:38:02

What you are seeing unfolding in

this frame is the difference between

1:38:081:38:11

coming back into the match, and all

of a sudden, when your parity with

1:38:111:38:18

your opponent, a different mindset.

Both players tried to make sure they

1:38:181:38:23

don't get their opponent and easy

starter. What has Judd spotted?

1:38:231:38:32

Bowl! -- bowl!

Judd hasn't potted a

ball for about 38 minutes. What an

1:38:321:38:46

opening this is. An early chance.

He

got that cue ball out so well. The

1:38:461:38:52

first chance to Judd Trump. What can

he make of it?

1:38:521:39:02

he make of it? The black is asking

to be potted at some stage.

1:39:031:39:10

to be potted at some stage. The red

by the black spot may be a problem.

1:39:121:39:19

But there are a couple of bunches of

reds that needs to be resolved.

1:39:191:39:33

Is he going to steady the ship?

He

has got himself under the black. The

1:39:351:39:48

pink is out of commission. It was a

great opening red. A bit unlucky for

1:39:481:39:58

Kyren to leave that red, though he

played the safety shot. But Judd did

1:39:581:40:03

pot a very opener.

1:40:031:40:09

pot a very opener. He could have

left that slightly better for

1:40:131:40:15

himself. He is still OK. But another

inch off the cushion would've been

1:40:151:40:21

better.

Does this going? -- go in?

He has got an angle for the blue.

1:40:211:40:41

Good pace on the cue ball again,

Dennis. With the tension that in

1:40:411:40:48

this match, he has controlled the

cue ball so far in this frame

1:40:481:40:53

excellently.

Not a good chance just

yet. It is difficult to get on the

1:40:531:41:01

red. If you could get on the red,

that might help. He has got a lot to

1:41:011:41:09

do from this position.

That is the

first mistake. He underhit that by

1:41:091:41:14

quite a way. It looks like he has

got be thin cut into the middle

1:41:141:41:22

pocket. It is a lot thinner than it

looks on TV.

1:41:221:41:31

I suppose he is obligated to go for

it.

It's amazing, Steve, if it

1:41:341:41:39

hadn't been a deciding frame on the

blue, I'm sure he would potted the

1:41:391:41:45

blue and cannon into the pink and

reds.

Is there a plant on? The thing

1:41:451:41:53

about this is he has got to be

sourced certain he can get this. --

1:41:531:42:01

so certain. The can't risk this. He

has got to be 100% certain. There is

1:42:011:42:10

a gap between the balls. We know he

has got history of playing planneds.

1:42:101:42:18

Such a critical time. A thin red.

This is not easy.

1:42:181:42:27

It would have been better

overhitting the blue than

1:42:371:42:39

underhitting it. Not the plant. If

it goes in, it could be a

1:42:391:42:47

matchwinner.

I think the correct

shot, absolutely the correct shot.

1:42:471:43:01

Not enough points to cause much

concern to his opponent. The first

1:43:081:43:12

chance to Judd Trump. Not converted.

1:43:121:43:25

That was a pretty good shot from

Judd. He has to catch this one thin.

1:44:131:44:22

Not too thin.

1:44:221:44:31

Not too thin. If there is no shot

available to him, I'm just looking

1:44:311:44:36

at the situation. He will go for the

thin one.

1:44:361:44:48

thin one.

Fall in the face. -- fall.

Wide to the top cushion is one way

1:44:481:44:57

of containing the situation.

1:44:571:45:04

Well played.

1:45:061:45:11

There was a bit of pressure on that.

1:45:171:45:25

Judd Trump looks to have weathered a

bit of a storm. He looks more

1:45:311:45:35

focused out there at the moment than

he did letting those frames passed

1:45:351:45:40

by. -- passed by.

That has opened

things up. Look at this cue ball. A

1:45:401:45:51

fraction away from going in behind

the yellow. But that has opened

1:45:511:45:57

things up somewhat.

He certainly

wasn't scared of trying to get the

1:45:571:46:02

black into play. Positive thinking.

Is there a path for Kyren Wilson to

1:46:021:46:12

try to pot this red and get back

down the baulk area? I think there

1:46:121:46:15

is.

1:46:151:46:18

It was a good effort. He has potted

three or four in this match. But

1:46:281:46:35

this is the deciding frame. There

was a lot of pressure on that.

He

1:46:351:46:38

didn't correct -- get the correct

angle with the cue ball. He has left

1:46:381:46:44

Judd very awkwardly placed. This is

a plant. I don't think so. -- unless

1:46:441:46:55

there is a plant. This is quite

horrible, isn't it? As he got to get

1:46:551:47:05

the extended rest Hoedt? That is a

horrible shot to play. -- out. He

1:47:051:47:14

could screw back into baulk. He has

got the red on the top cushion to

1:47:141:47:19

play safe off down into baulk. He

wants to be more aggressive than

1:47:191:47:26

that. Is he talking himself into a

pot?

1:47:261:47:32

pot? Nightmare. Nightmare shot. What

errors happen there? Surely there

1:47:341:47:47

was a safer option? Everything has

been thrown away. Everything has

1:47:471:47:54

been thrown away. How does he feel

now?

Well, he has got to sit there

1:47:541:48:05

and see what Kyren can make of this

chance. It is not a good chance.

1:48:051:48:11

Judd has a 23 point advantage. But

he thought long and hard and then

1:48:111:48:17

took on another very risky plant.

There was another straightforward

1:48:171:48:21

safety shot, it has to be said.

1:48:211:48:32

safety shot, it has to be said. He

has gone to get the black straight

1:48:321:48:37

back on its spot. He needs an angle.

He has got the red near the middle

1:48:371:48:41

pocket. Very positive thinking there

from Kyren.

1:48:411:48:48

from Kyren. So this is his chance.

Judd has had his opportunity.

1:48:491:48:57

Straight enough. It is a bit of a

problem.

1:48:571:49:06

This is a thin one. You can tell. A

shake of the head. Get the height

1:49:171:49:24

over the right side of the table and

that was an easy pot. He might not

1:49:241:49:29

be able to avoid imparting this red

-- in potting this red, he may not

1:49:291:49:38

be able to avoid collision with the

other red. It is tough to screw the

1:49:381:49:44

ball. What is he doing? Can he

control it?

1:49:441:49:57

control it? Where is this red going?

It is important where it goes. On

1:49:571:50:05

missable pink in the middle pocket,

I would suggest. I think it is on

1:50:051:50:09

missable. He trusted to lock and he

has got a massive amount, I think.

1:50:091:50:18

-- lock.

1:50:181:50:20

As long as the red is also not

touching the cushion he will not get

1:50:251:50:29

an immediate double-kiss as well.

1:50:291:50:40

What a semifinal we have been

treated to. What else is left in

1:50:441:50:51

this fantastic match?

1:50:511:50:57

this fantastic match?

He has

underhit that. Just about got away

1:50:571:50:59

with it. I thought he had underhit

it a bit more than that.

1:50:591:51:12

People ask you what it is like out

there under these conditions. It is

1:51:201:51:25

worse for the parents. They are more

nervous than you are.

Out there at

1:51:251:51:30

this stage of the match you are

playing on pure instinct.

1:51:301:51:38

playing on pure instinct. So far

every ball has gone in the middle of

1:51:381:51:40

the pocket. He knows this is a

golden opportunity. He knows he has

1:51:401:51:48

been gifted it. Is he going to

fulfil his potential?

1:51:481:51:57

fulfil his potential?

An awful long

way to go yet with a few reds say.

1:51:591:52:06

-- safe.

1:52:061:52:12

-- safe. That has certainly put all

four reds on now.

That was an

1:52:121:52:17

excellently controlled shot. He

could have been forgiven for hitting

1:52:171:52:21

it harder. It is advantage Kyren

Wilson now.

1:52:211:52:30

He is going to need one of the

difficult three reds on the table at

1:52:461:52:54

the very least, perhaps only one. It

is a great effort.

1:52:541:53:02

is a great effort. Still looking

good.

That is the number he is

1:53:051:53:11

looking at, 67 points. If he gets

there, Judd will need a snooker.

1:53:111:53:22

there, Judd will need a snooker. The

red he was leaning over, the one

1:53:221:53:24

nearest the right corner pocket,

that is not too badly placed.

1:53:241:53:34

He needs high colours two only need

the one red. It is not a bad red to

1:53:421:53:47

get on.

1:53:471:53:57

A bit lucky. The red has gone down

the table.

It is OK because he has

1:53:581:54:05

got an angle on the pink.

1:54:051:54:16

I think you would expect him to just

drop this in. He hasn't got to do

1:54:161:54:21

much with the cue ball.

It is there.

30 points the difference now. Slowly

1:54:211:54:39

creeping towards a place in the

final. Still some work to be done

1:54:391:54:44

yet.

He needs 14 points from two

reds.

1:54:441:54:59

He had worked that out. That is the

reason he played that shot.

1:55:171:55:31

That red I mentioned, he can drop on

that one here.

For all of the

1:55:311:55:38

inaccuracies of positional play that

Kyren Wilson showed at the start of

1:55:381:55:42

this match, he is on the brink of an

absolutely fantastic victory, maybe

1:55:421:55:45

the most important of his life. He

has showed great character. He has

1:55:451:55:50

improved as this match has gone on.

One more good positional shot. He

1:55:501:55:57

has played for the loose red.

He

will need a little bit of help. He

1:55:571:56:07

will lead the extension on his cue

and the extended rest.

1:56:071:56:15

and the extended rest. Hasn't got

anything to do with the cue ball. He

1:56:151:56:18

will automatically finish on the

black. I mentioned earlier, he did

1:56:181:56:22

defeat Judd in the 2015 Shanghai

Masters, 10-9. The deciding frame.

1:56:221:56:30

He doesn't want to try to get too

clever with this. Just drop it in.

1:56:301:56:35

He will be on the black. He doesn't

necessarily need to get too close to

1:56:351:56:40

the black.

1:56:401:56:45

Absolutely amazing. And what a

fantastic round of applause for just

1:56:571:57:01

potting that red. He is still

looking at the scoreboard. Just this

1:57:011:57:06

black to leave Judd needing

snookers.

1:57:061:57:17

Well... A little sigh of relief

there. Just one snooker to tie at

1:57:201:57:29

the moment. The double would make

absolutely certain of a place in the

1:57:291:57:35

final.

1:57:351:57:42

final. A treble will do! You see the

reaction. Look what that means to

1:57:421:57:50

Kyren Wilson. What a comeback

against Judd Trump. He was 5-2 up

1:57:501:57:58

and looked to be dominating the

match. This is some performance from

1:57:581:58:01

the man from Kettering.

What does

this do to the respective careers of

1:58:011:58:06

both players? What a turnaround.

It

is hard to describe how we is

1:58:061:58:13

feeling inside. He is putting his

cheeks. It is hard to describe how

1:58:131:58:19

he feels. This has been the best

performance of his career, even

1:58:191:58:22

though he won a ranking event. It

doesn't matter about that. That was

1:58:221:58:29

one fantastic semifinal. Judd Trump

looked like he was going to win the

1:58:291:58:35

match quite comfortably. In the end,

Kyren Wilson won four frames in a

1:58:351:58:43

row. He gets through to the final of

the Masters.

1:58:431:58:46

row. He gets through to the final of

the Masters.

1:58:461:58:49

Many congratulations to Kyren

Wilson. What a fightback. He is in

1:58:491:58:53

his first Masters final. You can

1:58:531:58:57

See you then.
