Funny Snooker Moments World Snooker Championship 2021

What a shot that is! Hit the ball any better than that. Foul. Oh, foul. Didn't have enough, and of course, because it was a touching ball, the red moved, which meant, technically, that it's a push shot. Someone thought that was a good safety shot, but didn't hear the foul, obviously, from Brendan Moore. Thank you. Well, that was funny. John Higgins has played off the top cushion, and Mark walked past him and put his arms up and said, what are you doing? He's been doing it all tournament. Well, this looks as though it could be the new way. Yeah, I think we'll have to... I'd say John needs to do a little bit of work on his. He played that a little bit too much pace there. Could have easily come wrong. I'll just share a little joke. Look, Mark's not happy. Someone stole his idea. For the second half century in this frame. No, not to beat. Break of 46. And it's only one of 58. Jamie Jones just saying to Leo Scullion, hang on a minute, the frame's not over. I need to pot a ball. That was funny. Well, that was so funny there. I think Leo Scullion said, what's he waving his hand around for? They haven't conceded. I want to pot one ball then. Because the red that both players are worried about is the one near the black. Mark's watching on the telly. Like us. We've had. There you go. Six pockets on the table. If you hit it hard enough, you just never know. He's just playing the straightforward shot into the corner pocket. Go on, go on. In behind. And nice to see both players smiling there. And how fitting it would be if you could go on now and clear the table. That must be excellent. We've had quite a lot of entertainment in these eight frames. We had a fireball plant. We've had some great long pots. We've had a little rest shot. Even with the cue ball in bog. Get in. Go on, get in. Yeah! He's going to clear off using the rest. There is only one Mark Williams. I've seen him use the rest off the side cushion. It's typical Mark Williams, he's brilliant. Good luck with that one. Mark, sell me four. Thank you, settle down please now. Thank you. That's a different way of playing a safety shot. And have a look at the cue ball. He has all the shots, Mark Williams. Got to be shot in the tournament so far. That's what he's capable of, Kenny. Even when he can't settle. Surely not a re-rack. Not after 31 minutes. Both players smiling and looking at each other. Bit of fun there. There's not much he can do in this situation. Look at each other. Yeah. It is a re-rack. We didn't touch it. It didn't move. Can we check that? So, Mark feels that he did touch the white. And Olivier's just asking to have another look. He's looking up to Joe Perry in the commentary box. No, he did. Well, it moved then. All very good-natured. John, do you want to pick up Mark? It's the easier way of doing it. Well, they have their own side for the rest. I'll do both of them. Mark took John's rest. And now they're saying, well, Mark said, that's the first time I've used the rest. So, why doesn't John use it? It's not complicated. No, it doesn't sound it at all, John. Leave it with me. Just a little bit of noise from the other side of the divide. Players and the referee having a conversation to clarify the scores on the right-hand side. That's Kieran Wilson with Neil Robertson sitting down. It's Jan Verhuis' voice you can hear. And Anthony. Make your mind up. Just seeing the funny side, he said, give it a minute, Jan. And he shouted over, make your mind up. 36. 37. He's going to clear up with the extension on his cue. There's nothing wrong with this. I mean, he's not saying anything. Someone said he should leave that on. But this is nothing against Sean. Sean's even smiling in his seat. Two great ambassadors for the game of snooker. But not easy to clear up with a cue that length. I could have done with one that length. I'm not the tallest player in the world. You have to use the rest to break off, Thomas Ennis. 51. Listen, you're not much bigger than me. But nice to see the match played in such a wonderful spirit. We have part-time jobs standing on wedding cakes, haven't we, Dan? 62. Well, that's one way of clearing them up. He's just finished awkward. Oh, he's got the little gadget. He's got the gadget that not many people use these days. What a piece of thinking if this pays off. That tells you how long ago he's used it. The last time he used it. And the rests have changed as well since. It doesn't quite fit, or does it? It's gone now. Yeah, I think Schur needs to persevere with this because this is so important. It may just look like he's already won the frame. But to make a maximum of the crucible is not something that happens every day. So I think he just needs to take a little step back here. Make sure he's 100% right in the shot he's going to play before playing it. Well played. And the white heading up behind the yellow. Is he going to miss the pocket? He's going to be unlucky. He's got a big smile on his face. Chris, he's certainly not having a run of the ball at the moment. So unlucky, wasn't it? Because it was a great attempt to get in behind that yellow. Very unfortunate. He's playing a very similar shot here again. He's coming off in this corner pocket. He might have been good at billiards. What do you think? It's okay this time. He's got the white back up to the safety area. There. It's costing him four points, but everything looks safe. He's close to the pocket again. He might go in off the yellow this time. Well, that's amazing. It's hard to believe, isn't it? Yeah.
