The 2022 World Snooker Championship final, "Rocket" O'Sullivan vs Trump, the first two stages of the game have ended, O'Sullivan led 12-5, although the final is divided into four stages, but from the current situation, O'Sullivan as long as he wins 6 sets in the third stage, he will end the game early, if O'Sullivan beat Trump, it will achieve seven consecutive championships.
In the first stage, Trump won the first set, but O'Sullivan quickly adjusted his form to win five consecutive sets to win 5-1, and then Trump won two sets in a row, and at the end of the first stage, O'Sullivan led 5-3. And in the 8th set, there was an unexpected situation on the field, when O'Sullivan made a mistake and made a snooker for himself, and then O'Sullivan failed to solve the ball, allowing Trump to seize the opportunity, but after O'Sullivan returned to his seat, the referee suddenly stopped the game and walked to O'Sullivan to give his opinion, and then the two had an argument, only to see O'Sullivan very angry, directly pointing at the referee, and his eyes were wide and his expression was very angry. Subsequently, the official announcement of the World Snooker Tour said that O'Sullivan made an uncivilized gesture in the eighth set and was warned by the referee, but O'Sullivan did not accept this warning because he believed that he had not made any uncivilized gestures, and when he left the game, O'Sullivan also refused to shake hands with the referee.
After the game, O'Sullivan once again expressed his dissatisfaction with referee Mathil in an interview, and said that referee Mathil was deliberately targeting him, and there were several cameras on the scene that could be re-examined. O'Sullivan then said that Mathil was just out of thin air, and that the problem was with Mathil, not with him. From O'Sullivan's statement, it can be seen that he is very dissatisfied with the referee and believes that the referee is deliberately targeting him, and O'Sullivan also pointed out that there are multiple cameras on the scene, if he has uncivilized behavior, he can watch the video playback, but the official did not do this, so O'Sullivan will be angry at the scene and directly angrily point to the referee.
