World number one Judd Trump beat Kyren Wilson 11-6 to claim the Shanghai Masters for a second time. The 36‑year‑old led 7‑3 after the first session, then captured four of the next seven frames to secure the title, his first main event win since a 13‑12 loss at the World Championship.\n\nWilson, who won last year, had early dominance, taking the first frame and later a 103‑break to bring the score to 8‑4. Trump responded with sharp play, taking frames 14 and 15 on the black and pink, and sealed the match with frame 17 after Wilson’s 134‑clearance.

The decisive moments came from breaks of 73, 62 and 67, and a swift 134‑clearance from Wilson kept him in the hunt.\n\nThe non‑ranking Shanghai Masters is one of the most lucrative on the World Snooker Tour, with £210,000 awarded to Trump and £105,000 to Wilson. The field of 24 included the top 16 ranked players, four Chinese qualifiers and four wildcards. The next ranking event, the China Open, opens in Taiyuan on 8 August, marking the return of the tournament after a 2019 hiatus.
