Saturday evening saw Jones defeat Stuart Bingham in an at-times agonising semi-final at The Crucible, the Welshman having previously never qualified for the finals.

That came after 'The Warrior' Wilson secured his second trip to the Worlds final by downing David Gilbert in convincing style.

Wilson had already knocked out Ronnie O'Sullivan in the quarters to earn revenge for his defeat in the 2020 decider.
