Simon Whitlock went out of the World Matchplay in style

Simon Whitlock's World Matchplay run was ended by Peter Wright in the quarter-finals, but the Australian went out in some style.

'The Wizard' may have suffered a 16-5 thumping at the hands of last year's finalist, but he left the Winter Gardens crowd with a special present.

Whitlock struck with the finish of the night with 'Snakebite' leading 15-4 as he sunk a champagne 132 checkout in some style.

A showboat bull, bull, double 16 was finishing of the highest order in Blackpool.
