🇨🇳 What a win for Zhou Yuelong! The world number 22 ousts four-time world champion Mark Selby to reach the next round of the Shanghai Masters. Zhou finished with a 107 in the decider; there were four centuries in the match - two from each player. #snooker | #ShanghaiMasters
Haha, I was really relieved when he gave up on the potential maximum. Would've been nice, but he can still make one in the next round. 😁 What a great victory that was today from Yuelong after a very disappointing last week! Very happy for him. 😊 #snooker
MANILA, Philippines — Filipino cue artist Chezka Centeno swept her way to the Women's World 8-ball title capped by a 9-6 final win over English Kelly Fisher at the Oneida Casino Hotel in Green Bay, Wisconsin, United States Monday morning in Manila.

Guess who took the afternoon off today to watch two Favs Zhou Yuelong and Mark Selby playing each other LIVE (not just later on demand)! 😊#snooker
For some reason (okay, because I think Chezka Centeno is cool) I'm back to watching pool. No Heyball this time, but the WPA 8 Ball Women's World final between Chezka Centeno and Kelly Fisher. www.youtube.com/watch?v=hYRo...

Good decider by Antek. Especially a good recovery long red when he was unlucky after the first split. Also nice to see the Polish lads always supporting each other. 😃 #snooker
Sometimes three centuries aren't enough to win a best of seven.
It's not a surprise that Heyball is very attractive for women who (used to) play snooker. On the WPA Heyball tour the men's and women's events are held together at the same venue (with little to no audience though) and the prize money is the same for men and women.
Målin@eselfreund.bsky.social · 2w agoNo joy for me at the heyball today as both Wendy Jans and Waratthanun Sukritthanes have lost their semifinal earlier today. The final between Shi Tianqi and Narantuya Bayarsaikhan is streamed on wpalive.tv and it's free. You may know Narantuya from the snooker scene.

I've been consistently on the record saying reasonable requirements like HRT for 1-2 years for competitive play is fine. But the average cis person online cannot process that trans women who have medically transitioned are different biologically than cis men.
Parker Molloy@parkermolloy.com · 2w agoThis post got a lot of traction on Twitter, and it's driving me nuts because this IS what "trans activists" have been saying for years and years. It's impossible to have a discussion on this topic when people refuse to acknowledge what one side is actually arguing.
Iulian and Michael both lost today. 😞 So I guess I'll stick to Heyball for now. However, I'm quite happy for Michael Larkov who pushed the in-form Liam Highfield to a decider today just two days after being whitewashed. Some positives to take from this match despite the loss. #snooker
Målin@eselfreund.bsky.social · 2w agoThe Heyball results have been quite pleasant today with Wendy Jans and Waratthanun Sukritthanes both winning two matches to reach the semifinal. Mary Talbot lost earlier this morning though. Now let's see whether snooker can follow suit: Go Iulian, go Michael!
A bit different from my usual birds... an Owlbear cub!
Nicolas Mortreux from France has made a 147 at an event in Mechelen, Belgium, today (POQ Tour). It's the first maximum by any French player in an international competition. #snooker
I've suffered from migraine attacks since my childhood, so I'm no stranger to (severe) headaches. But yesterday's pain was next level. I just managed not to throw up at work. Feeling absolutely rejuvenated today with just an ordinary migraine at the moment. 😂

Chang Bingyu has made 14 centuries so far this season of which 10 (!) are 130+. 147, 145, 142, 139, 138, 135, 134, 132, 131, 130, 127, 109, 108, 102 He has won 10 of 12 matches and 47 of 66 frames. snooker.org/player/1981 #snooker #WeLoveSnooker
I don't need this decider. I need more good things to happen in the snooker world today.
Watch Chang Bingyu's 147 from earlier today. It was the third of his career and the 244th in pro snooker. It was the third this season. youtu.be/Opj1ECyFm_k #snooker #WeLoveSnooker

So far this season there have been 3 maximums in 2,872 frames on the Main Tour. That's one max per 957 frames. At this pace there will be appr 17 maximums this season. The record is 24 in 2025/2026. Here is an overview of frames per maximums for the last few seasons. #snooker #WeLoveSnooker
😮 Another 𝗮𝗯𝘀𝗼𝗹𝘂𝘁𝗲𝗹𝘆 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 from Chang Bingyu! The Chinese ace made breaks of 109, 134, 83, 147 & 135 in a rapid 5-0 win over Chatchapong Nasa at the Shenzhen Open qualifiers. The maximum is Chang's third in pro competition, and already the third 147 of the snooker season.
.... and he completes his 5-0 with a century (135 total clearance) in just a little bit more than an hour of play. Nobody was expecting otherwise. Crazy scoring. It's a pity he missed out on a century in frame 3. Five centuries including a max would've been quite something. #snooker
Målin@eselfreund.bsky.social · 2w agoChang Bingyu is crazy 😯 #snooker
That was one of the maximums that looked like a decent chance before the first ball was potted. Very nice positional play to get onto the last two reds. #snooker
