Martin Adams finally overcame his World Championship hoodoo

Martin Adams resisted an amazing fightback from fellow 50-year-old Phil Nixon to capture the Lakeside World Championship title for the first time with a nervy 7-6 win tonight.

The duo were the two oldest players in the competition with only three months between them in age, but for most of the final there was a huge gulf in class as Adams stormed into a 6-0 lead.
