2004 Masters final between Paul Hunter and Ronnie O'Sullivan?
Hunter was 7-2 down and ended up winning 10-9, that was his last title.

Ranking final, one of the players was a world class player but now in his late 30s and not in his prime, his opponent was an upcoming young star that had won a few titles already.
The legend player in his late 30s would clinch the title which would prove to be his final ranking title.

Jimmy's last title.


Good effort but not that match unfortunately, it was 2 different players and was before 2004.

Qualifier who had won the last 4 frames in the final qualifying round goes on to beat former World Champion by winning the last 5 frames in the second round thus gaining revenge for a defeat at same stage at The Crucible five years earlier.

Could this be Judd Trump vs Shaun Murphy 2013 quarter final think it was? I remember Judd being far behind and winning 13-12, the deciding frame may have been long but not sure if it was an hour.

2 players in there 40s meet in a big big final, one of them people had felt was past it but had a reasonable season, the other was still a force and maybe slight slight favourite.
The player that was deemed as past it would clinch victory.

The year is correct but not the tournament or players, the 2 players involved way more high profile :)
