The World Snooker Championship final was briefly delayed on Monday after a fan had thrown up and had to be escorted out of the venue. Kyren Wilson led Jak Jones 13-10 as the Welshman attempted a comeback, but had to take a break when referee Paul Collier halting proceedings.
Jones was at the table and ready to make his shot when the official noted that a fan had been sick, stopping play as cleaners arrived to take care of the mess.
BBC pundit John Parrott joked about the size of the applause when the cleaner was brought out in Sheffield: “That’s the biggest cheer for a cleaner you will ever see.”
The ill fan left their seat after being escorted by Crucible security according to The Sun, as both players also exited after the frame had been played.
