As seven year old Aidan Murphy is picked to play his first country match after practising in the same snooker club as Judd Trump. We look back to a young Judd Trump in 1998.
Seven year old to play for country snooker team
He's only seven years old and he can only just reach over the edge of a snooker table, but Aidan Murphy is already being tipped for superstardom after being selected for the Bristol county under 18 pool team.
He was spotted by a youth coach who had heard about his talent in a pub and asked for a game against him.
Now the youngster will play his first county match at the Keynsham Snooker Centre, where he practises twice a week and where world number two Judd Trump sharpened his skills.
