Liang Wenbo is playing Stuart Carrington in the first round of the World Snooker Championship at the Crucible.

In the second frame of the match, with Liang having won the first, the Chinese player found himself in a tricky situation.

With the cue ball stuck in the pack of reds, Liang needed to hit the green.

The world number 13 went off four cushions and found safety with a glorious escape shot.


'They don't come any better than this,' declared Dennis Taylor on commentary for BBC.
