Baby-faced Zhou comes of age with Allen upset

Young Chinese potter keeps cool in Crucible shock

China's baby-faced assassin Zhou Yuelong showed nerves of steel beyond his 21 years to send Mark Allen crashing out of the World Snooker Championship in Sheffield, England, on Wednesday.

After world No 1 Ronnie O'Sullivan's shock exit to amateur James Cahill on Tuesday, 2018 Masters champion Allen was touted by many observers to go all the way at the Crucible Theatre this year and win his first world title.
