With a chance to win all three Triple Crown events in a single season for the first time in his career, Ronnie O’Sullivan will be competing at the World Championship in April.
Ronnie O’Sullivan won the second Triple Crown tournament of the season, the 2024 Masters, held at Alexandra Palace in London.
On January 14, O’Sullivan defeated Ali Carter 10-7 in the championship match to win an unprecedented seventh title.
The reigning champion Judd Trump was defeated by Carter in the quarterfinals.
Due to their combined maximum 147 breaks throughout the competition, Ding Junhui and Mark Allen split the £15,000 prize.
Judd Trump’s victory at the German Masters was his fourth season-long ranking title.
Judd Trump captured a record-tying third German Masters title, defeating China’s Si Jiahui 10-5.
In the evening session on Sunday, the Englishman won five of the six frames he faced, earning the 27th ranking event of his career.
In his first ranking final, 21-year-old Si was pushed aside by 34-year-old Trump, who demonstrated his experience.
After winning four of his seven finals, 2019 world champion Donald Trump remarked, “It’s been an amazing season so far.”
When you get the opportunity to compete in front of an audience like this and win the trophy, every tournament is unique; it’s an experience you won’t forget for the rest of your career.”
After regaining the form that got him to the World Championship semi-finals last season, Si narrowed the deficit to 5-4 with a 123 break in the first frame of the evening, raising the possibility of an upset in Berlin.
However, Trump calmed everyone down by answering with two of his own century breaks.
In the tenth and eleventh frames, he scored runs of 113 and 108. He then won three of the following four frames with breaks of more than 50 to ensure an easy victory.
