This amazing shot was not the only shock of the tournament so far, however, as 2005 World Championship winner Shaun Murphy bailed out of the tournament in the first round.

Jamie Jones, the World number 51, found himself 8-5 down only to amazingly turn things around beating the number eight seed 10-9.

After the match, Jones admitted it was the best victory of his career as he progresses into round two where he will meet Kyren Wilson.

Jones said: "I played really well in patches...Shaun got into his stride to go 8-5 up and I was shut out of the match.

"The 100 to go 9-9 put me on the front foot but when I missed a chance in the final frame I thought it was going to be a nightmare.

"I think it is my best victory. I have never faced pressure like I have today so I am so pleased to hold myself together and come through. It gives me loads of confidence."

Also making the headlines was the Chinese star Ding Junhui, who revealed he wishes to face five-time world champion Ronnie O’Sullivan in the tournament.

“I would love to play Ronnie again here, I always want to improve myself and test myself against the best and hardest player to beat – that is how you get better” Junhui explained.

The world number three Ding will play Anthony McGill or Ryan Day in the last 16.
