Zhao Xintong Makes History at World Snooker Championship

Zhao Xintong`s historic win at the World Snooker Championship makes him the first Chinese champion, defeating Mark Williams 18-12.

Zhao Xintong triumphed in the 2025 World Snooker Championship final, defeating Mark Williams with a score of 18-12 at the iconic Crucible Theatre in Sheffield. This remarkable victory not only crowns Zhao as the champion but also marks him as the first amateur and the first player from China to clinch the prestigious title.

The final unfolded over four intense sessions, with Zhao establishing a commanding lead of 17-8. Despite a spirited comeback from Williams, who won four consecutive frames, Zhao maintained his composure and ultimately secured the championship. The win comes with a substantial prize of £500,000, further solidifying Zhao`s status in the sport.

At 50 years old, Mark Williams became the oldest finalist in Crucible history. Despite the defeat, he acknowledged Zhao’s talent, dubbing him "a new superstar of the game." This final not only showcased the thrilling nature of snooker but also highlighted the emergence of new talent on the world stage.
