He’s only gone and done it – our Kyren Wilson is a world champion!
We’ve been following the Kettering snooker star’s career since he was a teenager and have plenty of pictures of him in our archive.
Now he’s lifted the trophy at the famous Crucible venue – 10 years after making his main draw debut – after defeating Welshman Jak Jones in the final 18-14.
Take a look through the career of ‘The Warrior’, who went to Montagu School, is a member of the Argyll Club and has previously turned on Kettering’s Christmas lights.
