Jackson Page, a Welsh snooker player who turned professional in 2019, recently made history by becoming the first player to achieve two maximum 147 breaks in a single match. The accomplishment earned him the £147,000 Triple Crown bonus. Page achieved his first 147 during the eighth frame of his World Snooker Championship qualifying match against Allan Taylor, and followed it up with another maximum break to secure a 10-2 victory.
Page expressed his excitement over the achievement, mentioning that he went for the second 147 knowing the bonus was at stake. This victory has propelled him to the final round of qualifiers, marking a significant milestone in his career. Despite the financial rewards, Page remains focused on his upcoming match against Joe O'Connor for a chance to compete at the Crucible Theatre in Sheffield.
