💨 Abstract

Jack Lisowski, a 34-year-old snooker player, won his first professional title at the Northern Ireland Open, defeating his best friend Judd Trump 9-8. Lisowski's journey to victory was marked by significant personal challenges, including a battle with Hodgkin’s lymphoma at 16 and the recent loss of his father. His health scare and subsequent recovery inspired him to overcome adversity, and he hopes his story can inspire others facing difficulties.
