Kyren Wilson defeats Ronnie O'Sullivan at Shanghai Masters
World champion Kyren Wilson eliminated 50‑year‑old legend Ronnie O'Sullivan 6‑4 in the second round of the Shanghai Masters. O'Sullivan fought back with three consecutive century breaks (100, 111 and 131) to level the match, but Wilson responded with strong breaks of 97, 89 and 79 to win three frames in a row and close the contest.
Wilson’s victory moves him into the quarter‑finals, where he will face fellow Briton Mark Williams. The win came as Wilson dealt with personal difficulties after his house was burgled earlier in the season, saying the tournament helped him clear his mind.
