The duo started Friday level at 4-4 with Gilbert the slightly happier of the two having scored the higher breaks including a century of 105 in the fourth frame. He continued that form with two more centuries on Friday morning but could only hang with Wilson who repeatedly went in front and was reined in. The match remained in the balance at 8-8 ahead of the evening resumption.
And, after splitting the opening two frames of the night, Wilson powered clear, capitalising on an error-prone and increasingly nervy Gilbert, who struggled for fluency and form. Despite not yet recording a century in the match, the 2020 runner-up scored solidly throughout, with only an excellent 101 in the final frame preserving Gilbert’s fading hopes of making the final.
The other last-four encounter is a much grittier affair than the relatively free-flowing contest between Wilson and Gilbert. It has been tough sledding between Stuart Bingham and Jak Jones who were unable to be separated after the first two sessions before Welshman Jones pulled into a 13-10 lead with five frames on the spin on Saturday morning. The duo were pulled off a frame early due to slow play but 2015 world champion Bingham did win the final frame of the morning with a century break to move just three behind going into the final session at 7pm this evening.
Qualifier Jak Jones edges closer to his first World Snooker Championship final
A reminder of what is to come later this evening
Jak Jones stands four frames away from becoming the first qualifier to reach the World Snooker Championship final since 2016 after establishing a 13-10 lead over Stuart Bingham in their Crucible semi-final.
Resuming at 8-8 on Saturday morning, Jones briefly fell behind before reeling off five frames in a row to seize the initiative in their error-strewn clash. Bingham gave himself hope of hauling back the deficit with a flamboyant break of 104 in the seventh and final frame of the session.
The pair were hauled off one short of their allotted eight after a gruelling session that averaged over 24 minutes per frame, including one that drifted towards the hour mark and required mid-frame toilet breaks.
The pair will resume to a finish on Saturday evening with Jones, the world No 44, bidding to emulate Ding Junhui’s run to the final in 2016.
Kyren Wilson heads into the BBC studio to chat to Hazel Irvine and John Parrott after his win:
“It’s like Groundhog Day! You keep waking up same time, eating the right food and keep going. I feel like I’m going to grow gills I’ve been having so much salmon.
“Coming into this event, I’ve not had the best of seasons and suddenly everyone is saying I’m favourite. But Dave would’ve felt he had every right to win that game. He’s a classy cueist, hits the ball unbelievably well and I had to stop him getting going.
“I broke the back of the match yesterday – Dave wasn’t quite there and I was very focused. I had some good form and nice slices of luck at good moments. It was just about being patient.
On what he learnt from the 2020 final that he lost to Ronnie O’Sullivan: “Don’t eat too much pizza and have too many Peronis the night before! I woke up that morning so tired and the fire alarm woke me at 6am. I probably hadn’t even had three hours sleep, I was shattered.
“I know how to handle that a bit better now and the semi-final will give me confidence. I’ve taken that match out in one clean hit, got in with a great strike on a long red – that will give me a bit of confidence going into tomorrow.
“I tried to do something a bit different this year. I missed a few events because my form wasn’t great, then I went to Portugal for an eight-day break, left the cue alone and then had bang on two weeks to prepare. I came in quite refreshed.”
A second World Championship final for Kyren Wilson and well deserved. From 9-9, he absolutely pulled away from David Gilbert and left him in his dust.
His only previous Crucible final came in 2020 against Ronnie O’Sullivan, in front of a Covid-reduced crowd and the Rocket cruised to victory. But this time, Wilson will be favourite against either Stuart Bingham or Jak Jones and will fancy his chances of clinching a first world title.
Mid-range yellow is crunched home and Kyren Wilson is on cruise control to the finish line. The final colours are cleared – he fist pumps tot he crowd after potting the blue and wins the match in style!
Kyren Wilson is into the World Snooker Championship final with a 17-11 win over David Gilbert!
Wilson back in prime position and only nerves can stop him now. The balls are all there for the taking. The black off the penultimate red levels the scores at 49-49 in the frame.
Just the final red as an obstacle, needing to pot it with the rest. He’s a great rest player and the red finds the heart of the pocket! He’s ok on a colour as well. The final knockings of this match now
There’s only one red that could pose Wilson a problem – one that’s tight on the right side cushion, near the middle pocket. He sets about taking the other four reds in the open first, slowly eradicating Gilbert’s lead.
On 28 he tries to move the safe red and dislodges it from the cushion! Lovely shot. It’s in the open now. A couple of tricky pots to follow though
Gilbert moves smoothly past 30 points and keeps picking off lone reds. Pots the blue to move the break to 49 and tries to disturb the remaining central cluster of reds.
He makes contact and splits them but the cueball runs wild. Tough pot on a red to the right corner and the cut rattles the jaws but stays out. Gilbert leads 49-8 but Wilson back at the table with a red to get him started.
When Gilbert reaches 15, he decides to smash into the main pack of reds and they split really nicely. Good shot. He needs to keep his composure now and this frame should be his.
After Wilson’s break-off, Gilbert tries to roll a long red into the right corner and it’s agonisingly close – rattling both jaws but staying out. Wilson cuts it in and then pots a thin black.
But then Kyren misses a straightforward red! Just the 8-0 lead and Gilbert needs to break the back of this frame at this visit now.
Gilbert now needs to win six straight frames to win this match. There’s one more before the mid-session interval – can Gilbert at least force Wilson to think about the finish line for the 15-minute interval by winning this frame?
