Thailand’s Thepchaiya Un-Nooh created undesirable historical past as he missed the ultimate black for a most break for the third time in his profession.
The 39-year-old narrowly missed a difficult lower on the black within the second body of his 6-4 win over China’s Lei Peifan, throughout qualifying for the Worldwide Championship in Sheffield.
Un-Nooh missed out on £44,000 when he missed the final ball on the 2015 UK Championships.
“There was an excessive amount of strain,” he mentioned on the time.
A yr later he fell on the final once more in his bid for a 147 break, in a World Championship qualifier in opposition to Anthony McGill.
That already gave Un-Nooh an unenviable place in snooker historical past as the one participant to have missed the black for an official 147 greater than as soon as and, eight years on, he has now prolonged his document.
