Riley Powell, a 16-year-old Welsh prodigy, edged Pankaj Advani 5–4 to clinch the IBSF World 6-Red Snooker Championship title. The victory was particularly dramatic because it came on Advani’s 40th birthday, when he was chasing a remarkable 29th world crown. Powell’s composed comeback, precise potting, and ability to handle pressure in the deciding frames stood out throughout the match. By denying one of cue sports’ most decorated champions yet another title, Powell announced himself on the global stage and underscored the emergence of a new generation capable of challenging long-established greats.
