The 2002 Embassy World Snooker Championship was a professional ranking snooker tournament that took place between 20 April and 6 May 2002 at the Crucible Theatre in Sheffield, England. Ronnie O'Sullivan was the defending champion, but he lost in the semi-finals 13 frames to 17 against Stephen Hendry and became another first time champion who fell to the Crucible curse and could not defend his first World title. Peter Ebdon won his first world title by defeating seven-time World Champion Hendry 18–17 in the final. ==Tournament summary== * Stuart Bingham narrowly missed out on a maximum break during his first-round match against Ken Doherty, making it to the final pink.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.highbeam.com/doc/1G1-84975437.html )〕 * Stephen Hendry reached his record ninth World Championship final and beat the eight set by Steve Davis in the 1980s. Hendry also took the record for century breaks in a world championship, as his 16 bettered John Higgins's total of 14 in 1998.〔 * Davis himself failed to qualify for the Championship for the second year in a row, losing to Finland's Robin Hull 8–10 at Newport. * John Williams refereed his tenth World final. He retired from the game soon afterwards. * Ebdon's victory made him the first man to win both his semi-final and final in deciding frames. Ebdon also required a snooker to stay in his semi-final match against Matthew Stevens. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「2002 World Snooker Championship」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
