The Warrior’s 18-14 Crucible triumph to defy Jak Jones’ gritty comeback was as nothing compared to the problems his family have overcome.
So it was no surprise he was more emotional than most champions after clinching the £500,000 top prize and his greatest moment in sport.
And he was quick to confess the vow he made after noticing a social media clip of himself looking tearful in an interview with the BBC.
After defeating Jones, he told Beeb presenter Hazel Irvine:
Jason Mohamed at the Masters.
He told the BBC’s Hazel Irvine: On YouTube one of my worst things to see is me crying with Jason Mohamed at the Masters.
“And this is going t be even worse… !
“So, yeah, I said I’d never do it again but I just couldn’t help it.”
However, Irving then stepped in with a tissue she’d brought for him just in case.
And after thanking her, the Kettering star added: “Oh, thank you” as he blew his nose and remained tearful.
Wilson’s practice time has been hampered this season by things more important than snooker.
Wife Sophie had to give up her driving licence due to epilepsy – so the 32-year-old has been busy taking his two sons to many appointments.
And son Bailey, six, who was diagnosed with a serious medical problem last year, needs surgery after breaking his nose ina school accident.
