About this listen

Zhao Xintong made history as both the first amateur player and first Chinese player to win the World Snooker Championship, as he impressively dominated a raft of star names en route to the crown. Former World Champion Ken Doherty joins Joe to recap that historic triumph, the scintillating play which made it possible, and the context of the match-fixing case which cast a shadow over his earlier career. The lads also discuss the styles of play which flourish in the modern game, the potential staying power of elder statesmen like Mark Williams & Ronnie O'Sullivan, and whether the tournament's future will remain in Sheffield.
