World Snooker Championship 2025: Results, draw and semi-final schedule in full

Ronnie O’Sullivan is hunting an eighth title at the Crucible

The World Snooker Championship rolls on with the action at the Crucible Theatre in Sheffield heating up as the tournament reaches the semi-final stage.

A number of top contenders have already fallen, including defending champion Kyren Wilson - pipped by Lei Peifan in the first round - and four-time winner Mark Selby, who was knocked out by training partner Ben Woollaston.

And now, Ronnie O’Sullivan has crashed out. The seven-time champion made a mockery of his recent period of inactivity, beating Ali Carter, Pang Junxu and Si Jiahui, but was demolished in a semi-final contest with Zhao Xintong, who beat him 17-7 with in a session to spare.
