"Judd Trump swiftly wrapped up victory over Ding Junhui at the Crucible this morning and stated afterwards that "no-one will beat him" if he continues to play like that.
"I asked him if he caught the Ronnie O'Sullivan chalk incident, and he said he had, but like O'Sullivan, said he was unaware of the rules about placing the chalk on the table. Trump felt The Rocket made an honest mistake and was unaware of the ruling too.
"World Snooker say they will be speaking to the referee Terry Camilleri to ask him his interpretation of the incident, but no further action will be taken against the five-time world champion."
It is fair to say that Aussie Neil Robertson was the big favourite heading into his World Snooker Championship quarter-final with Barry Hawkins.

Stoney's partner - former Lincoln Ladies player Megan Harris - gave birth to twins Teddy and Tilly last November.

I don't fear Ronnie but if he plays at his best, he is tough to beat. But if I play at my best, I can match him."

An Australian bid to host the 2028 Olympic Games would stand a good chance of winning, the head of the International Olympic Committee has said.
IOC president Thomas Bach said Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott had raised the idea of a potential bid during talks in Canberra.
"The prime minister was asking how we see the chances for an Olympic bid from Australia in the future, and I explained to him that... a bid from Australia would enjoy a lot of sympathy and would in fact have a very good chance then also to win," he said.
Which might make one or two other countries think twice before trying to bid for it.
