Shaun Murphy 147 Delights London Crowd! 🔥 | Johnstone's Paint Masters 2025

[@harimaj569]

He really deserves to win the tournament, he is outstanding this week

[@craigmorgan4676]

I'm surprised because Ebdons coaching him!🤣🤣🤯💀💀😬😬🤝🇬🇧🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦

[@harimaj569]

@craigmorgan4676 Ebdon is a former World Champion. Tbh, he was dreadful to watch, super slow player. But he is not there to change Shaun's style since Shaun's better player than him to be fair. He is there to give some technical advice to Shaun, to follow his matches, to practice with him and give some suggestions for improvement. He can improve Shaun's safety game maybe. But he will never kill Shaun's super attacking and attractive game style.

[@CityStarrzz]

I would agree at the moment.

Well done, Shaun. One of the precious few snooker players that actually acknowledges that there is an audience present and interacts with the spectators. And a joy to watch when he is in flow.

Truly incredible. Had a 100% shot percentage coming into the match and a missed 147 opportunity yesterday. I am a Wilson fan through and through, but I'd love to see them face off tomorrow, and if Murphy were to take it I think no one would be mad

[@TheycallmeMrWonka]

@@GameOvais But HE picked. You're free to find Wilson boring but that has no bearing on who someone else likes or why they like them. You don't need only the absolute best or absolute flashiest, personally i don't find myself drawn to a player based on their charisma as many seem to but that is what they prioritise whether i like it or not.

[@Mozartkugel]

@GameOvais What’s boring about Wilson? I like watching him play, too. 🤨 I’d be happy with a Murphy vs. Wilson final. I think out of any player currently on the tour, Wilson has the biggest chance of beating Trump.

Respect to Mark Allen there as well. Great sportsmanship

[@theavenger2378]

I love watching the opponent whenever someone goes for a 147, it shows how much they want each other to play their best. There's a point where the mood flips from 'bugger, I lost this frame' to 'I've got a front row seat to an amazing performance'.

[@garyphilpott255]

Thanks Shaun you made my day, I hope you win the competition now.

[@ruleyramundo]

Nope 🙅

[@JAM8OC]

I’ve never been the biggest Shaun Murphy fan, but jeez, he’s a player and a half. You see him get this 147, amongst others he’s had, then you also have to remind yourself he done it in the bloody snooker shootout under time constraints and a pissed up screaming audience. One hell of a player! Also, tremendous sportsmanship from mark allen. 👏🏻
