Murphy Slams O'Sullivan and Trump for Skipping Media Day
Shaun Murphy has expressed disappointment with Ronnie O'Sullivan and Judd Trump for not doing enough to promote snooker, following their absence from the World Snooker Championship's media day. The duo may face fines for skipping the event, where the top seeds gather for interviews and a photo shoot. Murphy stated that their absence has become normal, which is unfortunate, and that they could have done more to help promote the game. O'Sullivan and Trump are set to begin their tournament on Tuesday, with O'Sullivan aiming to become a record eight-time champion. Meanwhile, other top players like Mark Allen and Mark Williams are preparing for their matches, with Allen expressing confidence in his recent form. The tournament is also seeing the return of former finalists and qualifiers, all vying for the top prize.
