Shaun Murphy praised 14-year-old Wang Xinzhong as "the future of snooker" after a thrilling match at the International Championship in Nanjing. Wang, competing as a wildcard, defeated women's world champion Bai Yulu and professional Robbie Williams before facing Murphy. Despite Murphy leading 3-0, Wang fought back to lead 5-4. Murphy ultimately won 6-5 but was impressed by Wang's skill and composure.
