World Open Snooker 2025 Live Results: John Higgins beats Joe O’Connor to win the World Snooker in China

Age is just a number

John Higgins is officially the second earliest winner of all time.

At the age of 49, Higgins is only behind Ray Reardon, who won the profession of professional players in 1982, aged 50.

Higgins has now won an impressive 32 ranking titles, with this first victory on the baze from 2021.

A special moment for the wizard in Wishaw.

Matching statistics

Here is a look at the statistics in that match, because Higgins becomes a world champion at 49.

John Higgins wins!

Mistake? What mistake?

You heard about the curse of the commentator, what about the curse of the live blogger?

Joe O’Connor challenged his chances and surpassed his own mistake to win the frame with some of the best snooker of the day and a break of 67.

The applause collapsed around the arena in Yushan, when he rejected a complicated one in the pillow to win the second frame on the jump.

It would really need something, really special for him to win this, but he does everything in his power to try.

Expensive mistake?

With scores from 8-14 at Higgins in this 15 frame, O’Connor opens the table with a frustrating mistake.

He seemed to have been able to accumulate more pressure on Higgins with consecutive earnings, but now Higgins has a mass at his mercy.

This visit could write the end …

Couldn’t he can’t?

Joe O’Connor will not let it be a procession, he wants to fight.

He managed to put another frame to put four behind Higgins after a 71-25 victory.

Certainly, however, you will stick your money on the higgins to win this, but O’Connor will try to turn the screw as much as possible for time.
