“An unusual episode saw viewers at the World Cup with Snukera”, – WRITE: Sport.ua
On May 1, a stage 1/2 of the World Cup 2025 finals started at the legendary arena. The first to the table came from Zhao Sintun (China) and Ronnie O’Sallan (England).
After the tense first session, the account is equal (4: 4). Ronny lost two starting frames, then took the initiative and took 3: 2, but at the end of the session, his opponent leveled the score.
The unexpected incident occurred in the 8th frame. During the Zhao series, the Luzo was literally broken – after the Chinese strike, the equipment did not withstand the tension and broke, and the balls began to fall out of the receiver.
The audience perceived the moment with a smile, and Zhao retained the coolness, brought the break to the end and leveled the score in the match (4: 4).
