The superstars of the sport will play in the finals of the World Snooker Championships Ronnie O’Sullivan and Judd Trump.

O’Sullivan led the final 5–3 after the first period.

During the first episode, emotions swelled on a snooker scale. According to the British newspaper The Mirror, O’Sullivan received a warning from the judge about the “gesture”. The organizer of the competition has not specified what kind of gesture O’Sullivan made during the finals.

However, both those present and the TV viewers were allowed to testify by O’Sullivan and the judge Olivier Marteelin sanaharkan.

Marteel covered his microphone and went to talk to O’Sullivan, after which it was heard on the TV broadcast when O’Sullivan said that Marteel “saw nothing”. O’Sullivan also pointed at Marteel with his index finger.

O’Sullivan denied doing anything illegal.

– I think he (Marteel) is just looking for trouble. He’s going to have that feeling, O’Sullivan said in an interview with Eurosport.

– They have hundreds of cameras out there and they can check out those videos.

An Australian snooker professional Neil Robertson commented on the incident on Twitter.

– I wonder if Ronnie knows that the next warning he will lose that batch and then the next warning he will lose the whole game, Robertson wrote.

Trump, who was on the batting post after the situation, asked Marteel why the encounter between O’Sullivan and the referee couldn’t wait for the batch to end.

Winning 18 rounds is required for the World Cup. The final rounds of the final will be played on Monday.
