Well played Bingham. Fully deserved. I was at the Masters earlier this year when he played Marco Fu (Fu made a 147 in that match) Bingham was awful. If you'd told me that night that he would become world champion a few months later, I would've said you were mad!

Thrilled for him, but still feel sorry for Murphy. Epic final, I feel exhausted just watching.
Well done Bingham and credit to Murphy for his dignity and graciousness in defeat.
