2015年斯诺克世界锦标赛5月4日在谢菲尔德的克鲁斯堡剧院落幕。决赛在两位英国选手之间举行,最后38岁的宾汉姆以18:15击败墨菲夺冠,成为自1977年世锦赛落户这里后的第20位世界冠军。这既是作为10号种子的宾汉姆首次赢得世界冠军。也是斯诺克世界锦标赛38年来年纪最大的冠军。捧起冠军奖杯的同时,他也获得了30万英镑的奖金,并且在新的世界排名榜上从第十位飙升到第二。
这是宾汉姆职业生涯中首次打入世锦赛决赛,此前他8次在克鲁斯堡剧院亮相,最好成绩只是在2013年闯入八强。而32岁的墨菲早在2005年就曾在这里夺冠,2009年再次闯入决赛,输给了约翰·希金斯。
斯诺克是英国人统治的运动项目,每年一度的斯诺克比赛成为了谢菲尔德的节日,克鲁斯堡剧院成为英国媒体笔下和英国人心中的斯诺克圣地。事实上,参加本届比赛的32位选手中,只有6人来自英国之外:中国的丁俊晖和张安达、挪威的马福林、中国香港的傅家俊、澳大利亚的罗伯逊、芬兰的赫尔。
