Page hits second 147 in match to create snooker history

Jackson Page made snooker history this afternoon as he recorded a second 147 in the same match to beat Allan Taylor 10-2 in the third round of World Championship qualifying.

Page made the first 147 maximum break of his career yesterday in the opening session of the match.

Holding a 6-1 lead, he moved into a 9-2 advantage earlier today before what proved to the clinching frame.

The Welshman completed a second maximum to seal the victory and land a £147,000 bonus on offer from the World Snooker Tour.

The prize is for making two 147s in Triple Crown events in the same season, with Page completing the feat in a single match.

He is also in line for the £10,000 bonus for a maximum during qualifying as well…
