GARY WILSON was hailed for his "sporting" gesture during his match with Ronnie O'Sullivan. While competing in the semi-final of the World Tour Championship in Manchester, O'Sullivan had a foul shot called against him.
Referee Paul Collier deemed O'Sullivan, 48, to have done a push shot - a shot when the cue ball and object ball are touching while a players cue is also touching the cue ball - as he potted the blue ball.
It came when the Rocket was still level at 5-5 with Wilson in the 11th frame in the best of 19 match and saw Wilson awarded five extra points.
Following the judgement, O'Sullivan and Wilson could be seen conversing over the table.

any kind of push through impulse on the blue, and the blue would never have gotten in

@matend8125 29 дней назад

Blue, white and Cue ball went all to different directions, how the hell that was push shit ?

@atheistaetherist2747 Месяц назад

Usually the balls would need to be less than 1 mm apart for a double hit push shot foul to be a worry. When a leather qtip hits the qball the tip remains in contact with the qball for a distance of 8 times the compression of the leather. The softer the qtip then the wider the gap needed between the balls. But if u aim very thickly on the objectball then u can get a double hit foul even if there is a very wide gap between the balls. O'Sullivan's shot was not even close to being a foul of any kind, ie not a push (type 1), not a push (type 2), & not a double hit.

@TheCueist Месяц назад

Thanks for sharing your insights on the technical aspects of the game!

@nakkadu Месяц назад

A push shot (double hit) is likely when the balls are much further apart than that.

@atheistaetherist2747 Месяц назад

@@nakkadu (1) We dont know whether the ref reckoned it was a double hit (qtip hits qball twice or more). (2) Or whether it was the old fashioned push (qtip stays in touch with qball for too long & too far). (3) Or whether it was the new fashioned push (qtip is in touch with qball when qball is in touch with object ball)(is this called a push in the rules?). Except that we know that it was supposed to be (3), which it was not. For sure we can get an accidental double hit with the balls a long way apart. But we can also get a nice clean screw back with the balls very close together. Here we might need to aim off center on the object ball, & use a bit of inside english with the screw (& of course use a circumcized follow throo).

@nakkadu Месяц назад

@@atheistaetherist2747 What? You said the balls need to be "less than 1mm apart" for a double hit to be a worry".....I was just responding to that by pointing out that a double hit is likely even if the balls are much more than 1mm apart.

@atheistaetherist2747 Месяц назад

@@nakkadu Ah ok sorry, i thort that u were referring to the dist apart in Ronnie's actual shot. I think that the rules of billiards allow a push shot (type 3 above) if u play a fine edge of the OB. Not sure about snooker. Re the dist apart. I can play a fullball follow throo loozer off the red (red sitting on theSpot), if my qball is at least 10mm clear of red (ie i can play a 6shot here).

The ref needs to go to spec savers if he thinks the blue and white are touching 😂 theres about 20mm atleast between them

@sshakababy Месяц назад

That's not what the foul was for. The ref felt that after Ronnie played the shot, his cue tip hadn't yet left the white ball before the white ball came into contact with the blue. So for a brief second the cue tip, the white ball and the blue were all connected. That is what a push shot is, and the foul was awarded for that.

With an over head camera the ref can ask to replay on slow mo, would fix this situation. At this level of the game with so much at stake, I'm surprised the players haven't pushed for it. Then on the other hand, we would miss all the faff & controversy talk after😊

The call from the Ref has to be accepted at the end of the day like those huge men accept it in Rugby and take it. We do not want VAR in any other sport because we know what it has done to football because of the different or even corrupt calls when watched in slow motion. While I admire Wilson for his intention on this he is just undermining the Ref. Suck it up and let the Ref go to bed at night thinking he did the best he could have.

It was a push shot and a foul, but as the referee no longer matters let's replace him with some dancers, and let the audience vote about the rules in real-time online.

@thetruth156real3 Месяц назад

It was a push shot, Ronnie new it was, if he had jabbed the cue ball he would have been ok but it was a very exaggerated follow through. Don’t worry Ronnies fell out with refs before over less then that, he knew and that’s why he accepted without trouble.

@nickedmondson1583 Месяц назад

Great call, with the left hand side on and proximity of the balls, it looked like it 'could be'... however the ref called it, he stuck by his guns (as he should do), fair play, you can't start discussing rules with officials, they already move the balls if the players aren't happy when replaced when a miss is called (even if its correct on the screen). Referee was said he "was sure" and Gary said he "he didn't think it was", so GW wasnt even sure.. Trying to influence a result/decision could be construed as cheating/fixing. Players/People may think he's being genuine, but rules are rules. Be anarchy if ref changed his mind.

Utter nonsense, match fixing? He is questioning a call that went in his favour not trying to benefit himself.

@memphisdaniels3218 Месяц назад

@@muftydog that is not accurate to the situation, Wilson is not trying to persuade the ref to give a decision in his favour. This is more comparible to football players admitting to handling the ball or that it came off them when going out of play which, yes, happens.

for all the people moaning about it was against himself so yadda yadda, - doesn't matter, ref decision should always be final, hence there is one if its wrong then after the game discuss it, moan, cry, threaten to retire, whatever.. but not in the match..

@willsworld1990 18 дней назад

At one point does Gary say ‘I thought it would have hit the yellow?’ Referring to the path the white ball would have taken if it had been a push? I’m not bad at snooker and that looks true to me but maybe I’m just not that good ha! difficult call but not a push for me.

@zekeedwards9708 29 дней назад

I guess like gary i feel the same. If you achieve or win something as a result of an ambiguous dodgy ref decision, the feeling of glory is tarnished with doubt and a sense of cheating,it's never the same

@simonphillips4653 Месяц назад

GW shouldn't even be getting involved. It's the referee's decision. If Ronnie thought it wasn't a push shot he would have argued the decision himself. Looked and sounded like a push to me. Either way, not GWs place to argue.

referees decision is final, he shouldn't have been undermining him surely

@memphisdaniels3218 Месяц назад

The refs can review decisions on the monitors, all he asked was clarification of the decision and if he was checking it or if he was sure, to which the ref said he was sure and the game recommenced. It was more a case of checking the decision was final before taking his shot really, but players have every right to ask for the clarification and if they will be checking it on the screens

Trying to interfere with a referee's decision about your opponent is NOT sportsmanship! It's making an A-hole of yourself

What? Wilson thought the ref got it wrong in his own favour so politely questioned it and asked if he was sure or if he was going to check it, the ref said he was sure so Wilson accepted it, he didn't do anything wrong just questioned the referees decision on a matter, that actually benefitted him, as he is entitled to do either way.

@@memphisdaniels3218 If the ref got something obviously wrong - pink on the blue spot - then it's sensible to point it out.
