Lead

 * "in the 73-frame final." - hyphen should be an en dash per MOS:DASH
 * "The world snooker championship was not contested again until 1964." - why was this the case?

Background

 * The citation needed tag needs sorting out at the end of the second paragraph needs addressing

Summary

 * "The 1957 World Professional Match-play Championship was held at Saint Helier, Jersey," - maybe include the dates of the tournament?
 * "During the dead frames, which had an audience of around 80 people, Rea compiled the highest break of the match, a 92." - in which dead frame was the 92 break made?
 * The term break should be wikilinked only on the first mention to the appropriate article
 * "making an 85 break during the session." - in which frame was this break made during that session?
 * "With the six evening frames shared between the paid," - spelling error
 * "Williams then won the following frame, and added another which he won on a re-spotted black." - repetition of "won"
 * "The final was over 73 frames." - maybe added the dates the final took place on
 * "The highest break of the first day was 67, made by Rea." - in which frame was this 67 break made?
 * The Jersey Evening Post, which has a fuller report than other sources, mentions an 88 break in frame 4 so I've added that in. BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 14:14, 28 July 2021 (UTC)


 * "In the evening, Williams won the first frame with a 65 break that received that the Jersey Evening Post reported" - think the text in bold is unneeded
 * For the same sentence, the Jersey Evening Post should be italised since it is a printed publication
 * "with the highest break in the afternoon session just 34, by Kennerley." - some words missing from this sentence

Schedule

 * The table can have a header included and the refs in the table moved to the header and in numerical order
