Wu Yize is the second-youngest winner of the World Snooker Championship after a tight final against Shaun Murphy.

The 22-year-old lost the first five frames of the day to trail his English opponent 12-10, before eventually clinching an 18-17 victory at the Crucible.

Wu made it back-to-back titles for a Chinese player, following Zhao Xintong’s triumph 12 months ago.
