Shaun Murphy marches on in Wales

Watch Shaun Murphy use jaws and cushions to pot red ball


Shaun Murphy declared 'that was pretty good, wasn't it?' after an audacious pot during his Welsh Open semi-final against Pang Junxu.

Snookered behind the black, Murphy used the jaws of the corner pocket to send the cue ball up the table, and then back on itself thanks to check side, which saw it nudge the red into the middle.

Murphy had already made headlines for a 147 break earlier in the tournament and now surely has the shot of the championship to his name, alongside the high break.

Watch the video below and see for yourself...

Murphy went on to beat Pang 6-3 and set up a meeting with Robert Milkins, who will be playing for by far the biggest cheque of his career.

Milkins is in line for a Β£150,000 BetVictor bonus should he win the title, which itself is worth Β£80,000. Should he lose, the veteran will collect Β£35,000 and the bonus will go instead to Ali Carter.
