The Chinese cueist is one frame away from making history and becoming the first “amateur” and player from Asia to become world champion.

His victory would complete a remarkable turnaround as Xintong recently served a 20-month ban from snooker for his involvement in a match-fixing scandal.

He was cheered on by Ryan, who is best known as one of the six brainiacs from hit quiz show The Chase.

Nickanamed The Vixen, she has been on the programme presented by Bradley Walsh since 2015.

Ryan was selected for the ITV show after being recommended by fellow Chaser Anne Hegarty as they used to play together on the same quiz team.

The Vixen is also a singer and TV personality.

She has featured on shows like Celebrity Masterchef, The Masked Singer and The X Factor: Celebrity.

Ryan was not the only familiar face in Sheffield to watch the final, with the TV cameras also regularly picking up Adrian Chiles sat in the front row.
