Description

Wu Yize conquered the Crucible for the first time and became the second consecutive Chinese winner as he beat Shaun Murphy 18-17 in one of the all-time great finals at the Halo World Championship.
Following Zhao Xintong's historic triumph a year ago, as the first Chinese World Champion, Wu has followed in his footsteps and again the images of his celebration draped in his country's flag will echo around the globe. Age 22 and 202 days, he is the second youngest ever World Champion, after Stephen Hendry who was 21 in 1990. He becomes the 25th player to hold the famous silverware at the Crucible, and for the first time there have been four consecutive maiden winners as Wu follows Luca Brecel in 2023 (age 28), Kyren Wilson in 2024 (age 32) and Zhao in 2025 (age 28).
Final,(Best of 35; Winner: £500,000; Runner-up: £200,000)
