2-2, Wilson scoring like mad, now holds the record for most centuries in a tournament, 23.

Either of them deserve it really, I'll be happy if either wins, both in terrific form.

I was thinking that. It would be a great record if it was in 2 groups maybe 3 at a push.

Well that 22 was recognised as the previous record so I guess it would be a bit harsh not to include these!

Yes gutting for MJW, but Kyren did very well, recovered from 2-0 down in his last 3 matches to win the title.

And yes, obviously the 23 come in the CL with 5 groups played.

If you discount CL, Hendry holds the record, 16 centuries at the 2002 World Champs.

Ding Actually did make 18 in the 2016 World Championship in 8 matches 15 at the Crucible.

Thanks for the info. I guess it depends what you want to count.

But Kyren holds the outright record now.

I was so gutted Ding lost that final in 2016. He went 6-0 down and then was trailing only 8-7. Then it was 10-7. Everytime Ding got close Selby kept pulling away again.

That was the second year we did The Watch threads. The original one was Reanne Evans.
