Lee Walker clears with 79 and levels it at 4-4. Who is going to hold their nerve in this decider?

A classic Jimmy bottle-job, I'm afraid.

Walker on a break of 31 and the reds are nicely spread out. It has been a very slow 31 break so far though.

Jimmy please don’t continue on tour. Stick to the seniors and exhibitions. You will get slapped up next season you are done. Will always love you but it’s done for you now.

83 break and Walker wins 5-4. Well done Lee Walker, commiserations to Jimmy, He will be disappointed to have lost that after leading 4-2.

Well done, Lee
Hard luck, Jimmy
Can’t begrudge Walker the win; he’s done it the hard way - 3 down with 4 to play and beats Lilley, 3-1 & 4-2 down tonight and still lifts the Trophy. Great stuff!

He played very well in this tournament though.
If he could replicate that on the tour he’s definitely win matches.

Lee Walker has played decent stuff lately.
In fact he has changed his approach to the game since the Yuelong match at the Gibraltar Open which I reffed. He said so in an interview, and I as a referee could see he was hitting the ball very well and could easily have won that match.
Well done Lee Walker!

Lee Walker could easily be in the Champion of Champions and Mark Williams Not.
Mark only twice been in the Champion of Champions in 9 years 2018 and 2021

That was before last year's event.
He has currently second slot for world rankings qualifying if they needed though.

Lee Walker - WORLD CHAMPION!!
Is he the slowest champion EVER?
Poor old Jimmy. You know its time to put away the cue when you can't win the seniors event. Walker bags a place at the CoC. 20k in the back pocket for that and will have a 1st round exit.

Slowest Seniors Champion? Maybe.
Slowest World Champion? Probably Ebdon.

He should've threatened to get naked if he won again. Followed Lady Godiva's lead.
