‘Incredible!’ – Murphy pulls off outrageous trick shot before joking with crowd
Snooker fans, do you remember Shaun Murphy’s amazing exhibition shot at the 2017 World Championship against Ronnie O’Sullivan when he used lots of side and the cushion to pot a red?

Well, he played an even better shot during his Welsh Open semi-final clash with Pang Junxu on Saturday night.
It was a very scrappy start to the match, but Pang made a break of 49 to lead 58-18 with one red remaining, so Murphy needed snookers.
Smartly, the Chinese player laid a snooker of his own with the white left tight behind the black and the red hanging next to the right-centre pocket.
With no clear escape using the cushions, Murphy decided to play an ambitious shot by wobbling the white in between the jaws of the bottom-right pocket with right-hand side, so when the white hit the top cushion, it would come off at an angle and go towards the red.
