The greatest shots from the 2026 World Championship.

Which one is your SHOT OF THE CHAMPIONSHIP? 🤔

[Sherri Unfiltered™ @FFT1776]

I don’t even know what to say about this TikTok compilation🤣

Straight up “hold my beer” energy for 63 seconds straight.

Which one is your fav? 🤣🔥

A small appreciation of pole vaulter Tina Sutej. The Slovenian won world u20 silver way back in 2006 and then it was fifteen years before she won a senior medal and now her silver with 4.80m in Torun was her eighth podium in five years.. outstanding durability and commitment.

Tofig Aliyev from Azerbaijan did the world’s first full “full at the World Games in China.

A full-full-full is a triple backflip with a 360° twist in each somersault.

World Record still stands

SIMPLY INCREDIBLE BAI YULU! 🙌

The 22 year old has made a break of 145 which is a new record for a woman in a professional snooker event.

A fantastic achievement in Nanjing! 😁

Huge talent… beautiful cueing… the maximum can’t be too far away now… Amazing! 🙌

[WST @WeAreWST]

Every shot of Bai Yulu's record breaking 145! 🔥

A breathtaking display from the young star who’s just set an incredible new benchmark for women’s snooker.

The sky is the limit! 👏

@James_Athletics Been rough since Tokyo too… suspect COVID tbh…

Look after yourself JR. 👍

[Alex Seftel 🎙️ @seftelevision]

Great to see athletics so well covered on the front page of @BBCSport 🏃‍♀️

Hundreds of comments from people who possibly wouldn't usually talk about athletics or pole vault

Suggests Mondo Duplantis can be THE face of the sport, and pole vault isn't too 'niche' for that
