Snooker Best Shots Shanghai Masters 2024 Recreated

to keep it going he going to take something here and we are back with the first real tournament this season the Shanghai Masters it doesn't matter if you missed it or it was just on too early in the morning I'll explain exactly what happened as we look for the best shot from the tournament and as usual we're going to be doing that by recreating all of the shots as accurately as possible but for playing them in the fewest possible attempts let's begin with last year's Champion Rono Sullivan who once again as you can see appeared to be hitting really good form for this event knocking in this long red against Ding and managing to swing the cuq ball round the table enough to avoid the red that was close to the opposite corner pocket this one's going to need a lot of backspin and right hand side and it'll take some judgment really wasn't expecting that one to come off so quickly not only potting the red but getting back down the table all right let's move on to the next one well that definitely went a lot better than expected so let's move on to Jud Trump now who looked virtually unbeatable in this tournament he's already won his second round match against Mark Williams but pots this yellow to Cannon the last couple of Reds away from the black and go on to make a senty break taking the match six frames to two initially I believe Jud had stunned the cube wall around the angles to get the cannon but then I realized he'd used left hand side on its own so that's what I'm attempting here and I was really close to getting that right on my second attempt but I didn't quite get the cannon I needed to leave myself in the position I could pot a red I keep getting incredibly close to this one by just can't seem to put this exact amount of left hand side on the Q ball I can easily overdo it and put too much side on or too little I just can't seem to get this right and get in the middle what I need to hit the target I was really lucky the first shot came off so quickly and I think this is the opposite problem it's taking a long time to get right I've got a decent Cannon here though and I'm on a red I finally got there [Music] in the previous round however Mark Williams was looking pretty good knocking in this really tough red down the cushion with enough speed to get the Cub bable back down the table for a shot on the black mark did eventually go on to lose this Frame but took the match well that shot is a little bit easier for me on my table but still happy to get it right away and the pace is pretty much spot on as well how about this cji way shot from the quarterfinal pots this long brown and brings the red off the cushion at the same time incredibly attacking yes he was a little bit lucky with a second kiss to leave himself in really good position but he' go on to win the frame here and that was difficult to do because he was playing Jud Trump who was really in as I've already explained I just missed the brown on my first attempt but I've got it on my second just how the cannon will this red actually go I've got to walk around the table but I can see from here it definitely does in the semi-final sha Murphy came back from 6-2 behind against Mark Selby to take the match by 10 frames to eight and played this weird looking shot along the way the frame was already over at this stage but I just wanted to have a go to see how difficult it is you got to play this one with right hand side so you can hit it at an angle but still make the red go straight it didn't look like it was going to work there but it seems to have gone [Music] in onto the final now and Jud Trump really wasn't holding back not only did he manage to get in position on the next red from this blue something that was tough on its own he also managed to split the Reds and get the pink and black out at the same time this requires a huge amount of Q Power and to get the perfect line you've got to get very close to the brown here in order to make the cannon and just a slight error with the way the cubble top spins across the table can make a big difference to the line of the shot and on these first few attempts I haven't quite been able to get enough left hand side on the cuq B so I'm going to have to step it up a little bit but avoid hitting the brown just like that I'm also having a problem on a few of these that when I'm not quite putting enough Top Spin on the cuq I'm making the white bounce and that's stopping it running through enough and means I'm not getting the angle anywhere near right and possibly causing the blue to jump out the pocket at the same time I'm getting Incredibly Close now but I didn't really realize how difficult this shot was going to be I'm just glad I finally got it and the pots on on the next red if that hadn't gone I'd have to have tried it [Music] again a big shot for Pang Jang X next is cannoning this red into a good position to allow him to make the clearance and force a deciding frame would see him go on to win it as would it see him go on to win in his next round match against Mark Allen also taking that by six frames to five this shot made a big difference I know in the past I've struggled with shots like this where you got to hit it with quite a bit of pace and it's between a stun shot and a screw shot and I can't seem to get that in the middle bit I finally got it after a fair few attempts but I've gone in behind the yellow meaning I have to try it again and I still can't work out exactly where I need to strike the cuq ball in order to make this angle this looks a little bit better though I haven't knocked it on into the right pocket but it still goes easy [Music] enough a recovery shot now for Rono Sullivan as he's managed to open the Reds up but failed to get nicely in position on a color and has to take on this tough long blue not only does he get this he makes a 70 break to win the frame against home favorite dingjun Wii and then goes on to win the match in the next frame with a 62 I got close but I genuinely thought I might get this one on my first attempt my second attempts good though and the White's pretty much in the same [Music] place home favorite dinging Wii is in a little bit of trouble with this one where he's tighten behind the pink and needs to escape from this snooker around two cushions which he manages with ease he ends up losing this Frame however although would go on to win the match by six frames to five my first attempt looks good here but the side spin on the cuq B is probably just making it hit the wrong side of the red that would have been safe but that's not exactly the way I'm trying to hit it and I've ended up going the wrong way trying to make the cuq bable go to the left I hit it closer to the pocket where I should have hid it further away either way I've got it sorted out now and this looks pretty good the we's more or less spot on as [Music] well Jud Trump is using a trick shot to get himself a chance in his quarterfinal match against CI way the Red's actually quite away from the pocket here so you have to be really accurate on where you hit the bolt cushion to get the angle right to knock the red in remember you don't just have to hit the red here which isn't too difficult you've got to get the angle right and make sure you pot it although annoyingly my first attempt couldn't have got any closer so let's see if I can make this small adjustment here to be able to knock the red in and I've got [Music] it for someone like Mark Selby this next Double is incred incredibly straightforward but it was also very significant in the fifth frame of his semi-final against Shawn Murphy he went on to win this Frame and the following frames to take a 62 lead so this one made a big difference and with my first attempt I couldn't have misjudged it anymore but I've got it with my second against that this Tom Ford shot was fascinating because the previous shot he tried to clip off the pink thin to leave it on the top cushion but missed it all together he ended up down the table CJ way put him back in again so he went for the double into the corner pocket it doesn't really look on but he still managed to get it winning the frame however he ended up losing the match by six frames to three this needs a lot of backspin to avoid the double kiss and that's why I miscued but I've made a really good recovery and got it with a very next shot so cue the music I guess this week Mark Selby gets three but only because his shot was so significant the clear winner is the Tom Ford shot which gets five and could be a difficult one to beat this [Music] year I don't know if you can see that but we've got our first ever Super Chat to put on the map which is Andrew from bankstown City Sydney which just about squeezes him there there we go the most significant fluke of the tournament went to Xing how in the first round against Zang Ander where the black entering the pocket here meant he won the match and made it through to the second round against ronio Sullivan who arguably had the most spectacular fluke of the tournament against him as he escapes from the snooker here double kisses the blue and ends up poting the red down the cushion the shot we're looking at though is from 16-year-old Joe who's lost position a little bit here but doesn't think twice about attacking and playing the long blue it's an accurate port and I'm happy to get it first time as well especially having to screw [Music] back back to the second round with ding Jun wi who's attempting a red that doesn't appear to go but not only does ding manage to putt this red through an incredibly tight Gap he also screws the QQ ball all the way back to the bolt cushion just in case of course with these I try as hard as I can to get everything lined up in exactly the right place but I can never get it perfect the Gap is definitely there but I've only got about half the pocket to go at or just enough to squeeze the red in P the near jaw and the way it was going I wasn't expecting to get it so quickly let alone get the white quite nearly back in the right place this next shot from Jud shows how he was easily able to brush past ronio Sullivan in their semi-final match he actually use his Top Spin here to avoid the pink and the red at the top of the pack making the cuq ball Arc round onto the top cushion so he could get it back down the table Ronnie was actually looking really good in this tournament until he came up against Jud which just goes to show how well the Ace in the pack was playing on the other hand I keep thinking there's a lot more angle on this shot than there actually is and keep hitting it too thin I've got it though and I've got back down the table although I've Canon the yellow on the way [Music] back Mark Selby appears to be in a little bit of trouble here 30 point behind in the frame against sha Murphy and virtually snookered despite this he manages to escape down the table and get the white back safe and end up winning the frame this is my second go at attempting this shot because on my first try I put the black in completely the wrong place then got it after three attempts unfortunately however the black's kind of in the way and I wondered why the shot was so easy here I'm getting close to the red I'm just not quite swerving around the black enough and I've got a little bit too much red on that sh but I think if I can just judge this a little bit better like that that's actually pretty good and I got it far better than I did on my first set of [Music] goes you know how this works
