TFA blurb review
The 2019 World Snooker Championship was a professional snooker tournament that took place from 20 April to 6 May at the Crucible Theatre in Sheffield, England. It was the 43rd consecutive year the World Snooker Championship had been held at the Crucible, and the 20th and final ranking event of the 2018/2019 season. The winner of the title was Judd Trump (pictured), who defeated John Higgins 18–9 in the final to claim his first World Championship, completing the Triple Crown. Defending champion Mark Williams lost 9–13 to David Gilbert in the second round. The tournament featured 100 century breaks, the highest number ever recorded at an official snooker event. The final match alone included 11 centuries, the most ever scored in the final of a ranking event. Higgins compiled the highest break, a 143, in his semifinal win over Gilbert. Shaun Murphy defeated Luo Honghao in the first round 10–0, the first whitewash at the World Championship since 1992.

Just a suggested blurb ... thoughts and edits are welcome. - Dank (push to talk) 18:08, 3 November 2019 (UTC)
 * It wasn't his first Triple Crown title - he's won the other two. He completed the Triple Crown with the win. "claim his first World Championship and complete the Triple Crown." semifinal should be semi-final. Other than that, looks great.

 * Went with "completing the Triple Crown". Cambridgedictionaries, Chambers, Collins and Oxford/Lexico all give "semifinal", no hyphen, as the spelling. - Dank (push to talk)
 * Oh, and I think the fact that an amateur player played at the event is actually more notable than the amount of centuries at the event, and should be included in it's stead. Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 18:16, 3 November 2019 (UTC)
 * I forgot to mention that Johnboddie worked on this blurb ... he told me he left that out because Cahill had been a professional for four years, then was an amateur briefly before this tournament, so "amateur" is going to be misleading for many readers, even if it's technically true, unless we mention the previous professional status. Thoughts, anyone? - Dank (push to talk) 19:00, 3 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Thank you ! I think you've done a couple of these now, and super quick. It doesn't have to be added, but it was one of the more notable parts of the event. Thank you for writing this one for me. Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 19:22, 3 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Happy to do it. Johnboddie (talk) 20:24, 3 November 2019 (UTC)
