Bristol world snooker champion Judd Trump triumphs at German Masters
Bristol's Judd Trump delivered a commanding performance this weekend to win the German Masters.
The world champion triumphed over Neil Robertson 9-6 in Berlin to take his fourth title of the snooker season.
Both players begun the evening session level at four frames apiece in the best-of-15 final.
But Trump, 30, recorded breaks of 54 and 75 to open up a two-frame lead.
The two players then shared the next four frames as Trump got a break of 100 in the 15th.
"It was a good game, and there was a lot of high-class safety," said Trump.
"You had to earn your chance. Neil is very hard to beat, and I had to play mybest safety.
Every time he is in, you expect him to clean up. He is that good."
At one stage, Robertson held a 4-2 lead, but the 37-year-old had no answer for the Bristolian's fightback.
"From 4-2 up, I was looking really good, but his safety was awesome," saidRobertson.
"I didn't do a lot wrong to be 8-5 down, so you have to give Judd all thecredit in the world because he played a fantastic match.
"Of course, I can look back at maybe a couple of mistakes, and perhaps mysafety could have been better. But sometimes you have to hold your hands up and say I have been outplayed."
