Jackson Page wins eye-watering prize after stunning 147 feat that's never been seen before in snooker

Jackson Page has won an eye-watering prize after registering a stunning 147 feat that has never been seen before in snooker history.

Page beat Allan Taylor 10-2 in a World Championship qualifier in Sheffield.

The qualifying rounds at the English Institute of Sports runs until April 18, with the World Championship due to begin at the iconic Crucible Theatre three days later, with a former world champion banned from competing.

In his qualifier against Taylor, Page made history and earned himself a huge bonus in the process.

The Welshman recorded not one but TWO maximum 147 breaks in the SAME match.

He registered his first 147 of the match in the 8th frame as part of a commanding performance, before hitting another maximum in the 12th frame.

The incredible 147 feat has never been achieved twice in the same game before, with the 23-year-old entering the snooker record books.

His heroics also saw him pocket a cool £147,000.

X user Craig Harris uploaded footage of Page's heroics, accompanied with the caption "Jackson Page is a cool 147k richer (for now) after just making his SECOND max in 2 days at @WeAreWST #WorldChampionship snooker qualifiers @UKSportsInst. Just about an hour after I was chatting to him about the chances, after his max yday! Wow."

Page, who turned professional in 2019, arrived in Sheffield having never hit a maximum in his career but has now made two in the same match and won the massive prize.

He also guarantees himself at least a share of the tournament high-break prize which stands at £15,000.

He is aiming to reach his third World Championship.

Page was beaten 10-1 by Ronnie O'Sullivan in the first round of last year's competition.

In 2022, he reached the second round before losing the match to fellow Welshman Mark Williams.
