Kyren Wilson beats Jak Jones to win the 2024 World Snooker Championship at the Crucible 🏆 

Delighted for Kyren Wilson, he needed to win a big tournament and he's finally done it. Well played Jak Jones, what a run to the final

Well done Kyren. Its nice to see a new WC. Well Played to Jak, I am sure we will see him win a WC one day.

I'd love to see Jim from Friday Night Dinner walk up to him and say......Wilson! 😁

So happy for Kyren and his lovely family. It's been a tough time for him. Lovely lad. Commiserations to Jak, he played an incredible final considering the mountain that he had to climb. 2 nice lads in the final.

Well deserved! Kyren is such a gent, so stoked for him.

Congratulations Kyren fully deserved 👍🏻 throughout the tournament his performances were consistent and focussed. Well done Jak Jones, an incredible run, hopefully he can kick on now.

Congratulations to Kyren, he played very well last two weeks. Even though he didn't play against any top 8 players here, he was the best player here. Well deserved result, congratulations.

First time I can honestly say, I really didn’t enjoy that final. What a disappointment Jak Jones was on the night.

Well deserved is in this case a big understatement, but, congrats, Kyren. Well deserved!

Кайрен красава!Преодолел трудный путь к победе!👍

Unreal stuff! Edge of my seat. Must say incredible fighting spirit by Jak, session 1 did for him but never gave up and that’s what you love in a player. Spare a thought. Great fortnight by Kyren. Comfortable beating O’Connor, Higgins, Gilbert on the way. Not his greatest playing ever in that final but for the championship as a whole, 2024 got its deserved champion! P.S. Got our latest Crucible curse victim now waiting for next year 😆

congrats to both players

Kyren Brilliant

Well done Kyren! Congratulations! 🎉

Brilliant 🎉🎉 it's nice to see a player emotional like that 😢😢 show's he really cares and that it means a lot to him, him, congratulations 🎉🎉 Kyren Wilson, a good man 😀😀🎱🎱

Oh yes The last Frams were dramatic. What touched me the most, however, was that the warrior showed his emotions with the victory and let tears flow freely when he hugged his brother. His family stood behind him and probably gave him the feeling that together we are a unit and strong. Glückwunsch aus old Germany. ❤🤩

Well done, well deserved. Congratulations, Kyren!

I'm crying for him, Go on KYREN 🎉

So glad to see Kyren win the WC. And unlike when ROS wins Tournaments KW is genuinely a nice down to Earth Humble family Guy. Will be (unlike ROS - who I idolise as a Snooker player BTW) a true ambassador for the Sport! Fair play to Jak Jones, But I think it would have been a travesty if he had won it. Wilson has done the hard yards, JJ needs to do similar if he is to go one better....

Incredible Congrats 👏

As a Ronnie man I'm so happy for Kyren. Well deserved!

Congrats KW👏👍unlucky JJ 👍

Well deserved

Another wonderful piece of sporting history...

Well deserved!! Even for Jak Jones. He made it so far this tournament. Everybody should be proud of him also. And Kyren's first world title! Congratulations champion!

Gongratulations Kareen ! 🤩

Well done kyren. Proper salt o'the earth gentleman and family man. Well deserved.

Great final and what a fight Jak Jones put up but Kyran finally wins it on his 2nd attempt in front of an amazing crowd. Keep the world snooker championship at Sheffield, it's the home of snooker.

Well chuffed for him 👏👏👏

Well deserved Kyren 👏🏻

I'm very happy for him... well deserved win through the entire tournament.

This match was duller than a dull day in dull town on a rainy overcast day wearing sunglasses .....

What a fantastic tournament. Error prone, intense and emotional snooker all the way. Congrats to Kyren, well deserved. And Jak won't never forget the last weeks either. Looking forward to the upcoming season.

Well done, Kyren.😊

I think they made the pockets too tight. It affected everyone throughout the Championship. It was hard watching it at times. The final was quite exciting with Jak's comeback. I think they need to keep it in Sheffield, open up the pockets a bit and tell Shaun Murphy not to ask for sponsors to come in. It's a fantastic game. The player's skill levels are through the roof! An amazing game, hope they don't ruin it. Barry Hearn said just 2 years ago that it would definitely stay in Sheffield, now he is saying it won't! Anyway, well done to Kyren! Jak played a wonderful part in the final too.

Yes Kyren!!!!! Well deserved, been going at it for so many years, will finally get his deserved recognition

Herzlichen Glückwunsch

Well deserved Kyren Wilson!!!

Always great for a player to win his first World title. Yes it was at times a match that could have been played down the boozer 😂 the quality was horrendous but sometimes that makes for a unpredictable outcome. Its a shame that Jones didnt turn up at all in the first session, could have been a closer encounter

Congrats Kyren! (And a bit for Barry too😁)

Hope Eurosport don't mind my mentioning their rival but at the end of the BBC show they played Elvis Presley's I Can Dream over the end titles and the clips of Kyren winning. Genius ending. I thought it was quite moving. 😚 Never seen a more perfect ending to a sporting event.

You made me cry kyren

Enjoyed watching final. Best player won. 😉

Final outttt

Vilsons👍👍👍🥇🏆

Well done Kyren Wilson that’s him a world champion now. Nobody can take that he will be introduced for a year as world champion. Hopefully he can win a couple more he’s been in 2 finals now and won 1.

Welsh rumors says he won only because his cue was corked (which is illegal in baseball).

Loved snooker in the 80s. Loved Ray Reardon and Steve Davis unlike the junkie boozy player's who disgraced snooker

Gotta be honest didn't really fancy this final, felt like a Round 1 match when I found out the finalists but it did surprise me. When Jak went down 7-1 in the first session all my feelings felt confirmed. But slowly he fought back, never was quite sustainable enough to get close to Kyrans lead but seeing him claw 13 more frames after being 7-1 down was fantastic & there really was some amazing moments. I feel asif there was a few frames where it was just one or two desicions that lost them for Jak so if he'd have made something like 3 different desicions in 3 different frames it could have easily went to a final frame decider & he might have won it. Both players definitely earned my respect anyway & I'm happy that Kyran finally got his World Title, & I think with a bit of mentoring, a bit of work on getting out of snookers & some better cue ball control, I could definitely see Jak Jones appearing in more later stages of big finals in the future

his kid going to see jak , should have put that in

Seeing Kyren win at the crucible and what it means to him is way better than seeing Ronnie win his 8th title IMO. Snooker definitely needed a new champion and I also wonder if these 2 are gonna be head to head for many years to come.

Let's christen him _Jak in the Box_ cause he gets up again and again. Tremendous effort. Not to be but this man is going places... Of course some decisions were due to pressure and he was a bit naive at times lacking experience as he is, but his temper is right were it should be. Good breakbuilder, good safety, good tactician. Expecting for things to click for him now. All the best Jak Jones.

I like kyren but i feel for jones because i think that was a little unfair. Kyren shouted out and started crying, claimed he couldn't see anymore, he missed and there was still 2 reds on the table and all the colours but hed already put the pressure on jones to concede that frame with his actions. It was a long shot but tbh i would have played on if i was jones

Interesting shot selection lol final frame in the world championship and he goes for a random double

Jones should have complained to referee about Kieran over celebrating during the game - tbjs is exactly what Kieran did to Gary Wilson. Now that Kieran finally understands there is a lot of emotion in wining a big game - perhaps he should apologise to Gary Wilson?

I think if it had gone on for another session Jak may well have won .. he was slowly breaking Wilson down, but not quite fast enough. He was basically on top of Wilson in the last 3 sessions, but because of his terrible first session was too far behind to do it in time.

Im glad to see kyren finally made ir, but Im afraid to say that if kyren doesnt won that first 7 frames in a row on the beggining onf the day, Jak Jones night BE the winner

Congratulations to Kyren, well played through out the tournament, deserved the title. Unrelated to that, I still want to see a new sensation, literally. A new ROS, someone who is going to change how the game is played. It's been a stale mate the last 20+ years and this seems like just another tournament.

the final of two i-------------🤣🤣🤣

Jak jones has a brilliant temperament

круто

What a drab final. I watched it partly. Lacking in flair and skill both of them.

the first session was his winner. Later Jak was the better player.

Непонятно одно как этот Джонс умудрился обыграть двух чемпионов мира...вернее как эти чемпионы умудрились проиграть ,ведь он ничего особенного не показывал ни в полу ни в четверть а в финале вообще ничего не показ...Кайрену в какой-то степени повезло с соперником да и с сеткой в целом...лишь Хигинс был достойным соперником!

Respect to kyren but this seemed like the most underwhelming world final of all time, unfortunately for him. Well done to him, no one can take this win away from him, but it will be a very forgettable final im sad to say. And i reckon viewing figures were a lot lower than previous years.

Карэн красавчик! рад за тебя

Welldone but kyren is not the best player in the world.Lets see how he does next season,he will be another Brecel

I wonder if it's time to consider making the world championship match formats shorter. With the length of the matches the way they are now, the old men literally have no chance unless they blitz the field and even younger players like Jones end up goosed if they have had to come through some tight ones on the way to the final. Higgins especially can never win it again because of this format. It has become more of an endurance test than a snooker test! I'm not saying it should be a super short format or anything.... it still should be the longest format in snooker! I just think that you could change the first 3 rounds to best of 19, the semi-final to best of 25 and the final to best of 35 - this sounds like a more reasonable format to me. Having a semi-final that is best of 33 with a best of 35 final to come less than 24 hours later seems a bit unfair and we have seen it time and time again that players who play in a grueling best of 33 semi-final tend to really struggle to play their best snooker in the World Final (especially the first session) which is surely what you don't want to see! Not taking anything away from Kyren though.... who is a deserved champion and will be a great ambassador for the game!

Не ожидал что он так будет кривляться или кричать после победы

Jak Jones is hilarious he looked so p*ssed off

I’ll wager this had the least viewing figures since the colour television started

The two best players in the tournament. Either one of them could have won and nobody would have grumbled. So happy for Kyren and his family, he grafted his whole life for that and he got the ultimate reward 👏🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Obrigados

Wilson had tge easist run, played half of jak jones time, worst winner easy

Well done

Lástima del mal principio de Jak... podría haber ganado, jugó mejor que kyren...

That was the worst snooker final I can ever remember.. jones was hopeless and Wilson bottled it.. sooo boring…

Bad match...I wanted to win Jak!

That was painful to watch in parts. I think if Kyren had lost that match it would have ended his career. I dont think he got a break above 50 in the whole final session. Well played though. He was easily the best player over the 2 weeks.

Picked kyren from the start , class act

Kyren was the less dreadful out of the two of them, but that standard was awful.

🥹

I had hoped for Judd v. Ronnie in the final.

Has to be the most anti-climatic snooker worlds ever. Considering Ronzers and Trumps winning ratios this season as well as Williams and Allen pipping a couple here and there. Pathetic quality of big guns... With all due respect Kyren has only one gear... He's like Graeme Dott, Peter ebdon calibre wouldn't be my cuppa tea to watch but happy for him at the same time. Hopefully next year we have the big fish at the semis not these small Fry's.

I thought we were getting rid of Virgo, he should have some dignity and retire, the more recent commentators, especially Alan McManus you can really hear their enthusiasm when they are commentating

congrats for Kyren!! worst final ever to warch really painful

Как с такими дурацкими ошибками они оба вообще до финала добрались??))

Jesus no !!

Kyren will win more world titles than Judd Trump.

"The tears a really coming now!" No, they're not. I just have something in my eye, honest.

Another duffer to add to a long list of second rate champions. John Parrot. Tall bloke. Joe? And then there were the bores. SH. CT. SD. And dear old Ray R. Crap.

Was the number and quality of missed pots typical for such an event, or is it fair to say, noteworthy mediocrity on both sides in too many situations? And is a Britain Got Talent like private backstory demanded to be allowed in to compete? When Jones is such a poor player, as some stated here and there, how did he get to the final? Is he a better player now? Is it true that at least one finalist has to be a drunkard? Such a confusing activity this snooker game.

😴😴😴😴😴😴 well done Kyren Ebdon.

Meant so much for him to win that he didn't even lift his hand up when he potted that re-spotted black as a fluke. Could've shown more respect to his opponent and the screaming at the end was lack of class. Jak Jones won a fan in me tonight, what a great player and character!

Jak Jones proved himself as the best snooker player in the world, all that has stopped him from being world champion is a lucky first 7 frames. Devestated for him.

Only Ronnie could beat Kyren.

Crying wilson=boring

Still can’t help thinking it would have been more exciting watching Ronnie in the final.

This result is worse than that of Brecel , something is not quite right here , seems to me he was given a pass , never played anyone dangerous to him , very disturbing!!!

Worst Champion since John Parrott!
