The 2000 Embassy World Snooker Championship was a professional ranking snooker tournament that took place between 15 April and 1 May 2000 at the Crucible Theatre in Sheffield, England.
Stephen Hendry was the defending champion, but he lost in the first round 7–10 against Stuart Bingham.
Mark Williams won his first World title by defeating fellow Welsh player Matthew Stevens 18–16 in the final.[1]
Tournament summary[編輯]
- In the final qualifying round Gary Wilkinson and Jason Ferguson set the record of the longest best-of-19-frames match at 11 hours and 38 minutes.[2]
- Joe Swail returned to the top 16 in the snooker world rankings after reaching the semi-final against Matthew Stevens.[3]
- The pre-tournament favourite Stephen Hendry,[4] was eliminated in the first round by Crucible debutant Stuart Bingham (10–7).[5]
- Swail's place in the last 16 ended Steve Davis' run in the elite top 16 – he had been in since 1980 including holding the world number one spot from 1983 to 1990.[3][6] Davis lost 11–13 to John Higgins in the second round. He later returned to the top 16 in 2003/2004.[6]
- Higgins made a record of 485 unanswered points in his quarter-final match against Anthony Hamilton.[7]
- Mark Williams became only the third Welsh snooker player to win the world title after Ray Reardon and Terry Griffiths, and the first since 1979.[8] Trailing 7–13 against fellow countryman Matthew Stevens in the final, Williams recorded a comeback to defeat Stevens 18–16 and win the title.[9]
- John Newton refereed his first and only World final and retired from refereeing after the match.[10] This was also the first ever all-Welsh World final and remains only one to-date.[11]
