Selby Crowned the King of CRUCIBLE 2016





After 17 days of magical snooker the World Snooker Championship 2016 ends with the trophy in the hands of Jester from Leicester, The World No. 1 Mark Selby. He had his ups and downs in the four sessions of the Final clash but he kept his nerves and played absolute safety to clinch the 32nd frame to win 18-14 as predicted by Neil Robertson on twitter. Spectators and experts are amazed at the performance of Ding Junhui who played seven rounds to reach the Final. He proved he's a fighter and can play the hardest possible pots under so much pressure. In the end CRUCIBLE CLASH concluded very well with 86 centuries leveling the record of World Snooker Championship 2015. Now fans will be waiting for the World Snooker Championship 2017 as the tickets went on sale yesterday.

Selby leading 10-7 over night in the CRUCIBLE CLASH!!!



We witnessed great snooker in second session of WSC 2016 Final. Ding did well after the first session where he closed with 6-2 trail, but under immense pressure he played well in third season and did a great come back. Tension increased when two frames went way longer than usual, one of them was an over 60 minutes frame. At the end it's Selby who's leading 10-7 over night.

Crucible will see the FINAL Clash between Mark Selby and China's Ding Jinhui on 1st May 2016. Spectators are hoping to see some more of great snooker in the final; They have already witnessed 81 centuries in the championship so far and it is expected they'll see more which could break the 'Most Centuries Record' of 2015 which currently stands at 86. We'll have to wait for the Final to see who will be crowned THE CRUCIBLE KING FOR 2016. Is it going to be 'Jester from Leicester' or 'The Dragon'.

World No. 1 Mark Selby through to the Final of World Championship 2016

World Snooker Championship 2016 Semi Final between Ding Junhui vs Alan McManus (Third session)


Ding Junhui will walk into fourth and final session of the Semi Final with a comfortable lead of 4 frames, He closed the third session at 14-10. This lead could make him one step closer to the Word Championship Final but McManus also has what it takes to perform under pressure, We've seen him doing well while He was tailing the player with good difference. If he performs that kind of snooker then only two players are in between his First Ever World Title.

147 Missed !!!


Ding Junhui missed black of last red while attempting th maximum in 20th frame of WSC 2016 Semi-Final against Alan McManus. Ding leads 12-8 in the third session before interval.

Marco Fu's tip comes off during the break



In dramatic second session of World Snooker Chapionship 2016 Semi Final; Fu did an excellent comeback to make the frame score 7 each and in the 15th frame after potting 33 points Marco Fu's tip came off. He has been lucky enough to have his tip come off while he was chalking otherwise it could have been disastrous if it came off during a shot. They'll return after a few minutes break.

The careful McManus



In 7th frame Mcmanus had to play a tricky red with rest which he did perfectly but "The Careful Mcmanus" made sure the rest doesn't touch the blue because of its awkward placement.

World Snooker Championship 2016 Semi Final between Ding Junhui vs Alan McManus (Second session)



In the first session Ding Junhui led Alan McManus with frame score of 6-2. But It was McManus who started playing majestic snooker after frame score reached 9-3 and closed the second session at 9-7. Let's hope third and forth session continues to show us top quality snooker just like the earlier sessions.
