In the world of Maximum break, there has always been a constant and ever-evolving interest. Whether we are talking about a historical figure, a cultural phenomenon or a scientific topic, Maximum break has left its mark on humanity in one way or another. Its influence has spread over time and continues to impact today. In this article, we will closely explore the importance of Maximum break and how it has shaped our society, as well as the implications it has for the future. From its beginnings to the present, Maximum break has generated countless discussions, debates and studies that seek to understand its scope and meaning in people's lives.

A maximum break (also known as a maximum, a 147 or, orally, a one‑four‑seven) is the highest possible break in snooker in normal circumstances[a] and is a special type of total clearance. A player compiles a maximum break by potting all 15 reds with 15 blacks for 120 points, followed by all six colours for a further 27 points. Compiling a maximum break is regarded as a highly significant achievement in the game of snooker and may be compared to a nine‑dart finish in darts, a hole‑in‑one in golf or a 300 game in ten‑pin bowling.[3][4]
Joe Davis made the first officially recognised maximum break in a 1955 exhibition match in London. At the Classic in January 1982, Steve Davis achieved the first recognised maximum in professional competition, which was also the first in a televised match. The following year, Cliff Thorburn became the first player to make a maximum at the World Snooker Championship. As of August 2025, over 200 officially recognised maximum breaks have been made in professional tournament play.[5] Ronnie O'Sullivan holds the record for the most maximum breaks in professional competition, with 17, and also the Guinness World Record for the fastest competitive maximum break, which he made at the 1997 World Championship in a time of 5 minutes and 8 seconds.[6][7] At the 2017 Championship League, Mark Davis became the first player to make two official maximums at the same event. In the 2025 World Snooker Championship qualifiers, Jackson Page became the first player to make two official maximums in the same match. In the 2025 Saudi Arabia Snooker Masters semi-finals, O'Sullivan became the first to make two official maximums in a one-session match or on the same day.[8]
Maximum breaks have become more frequent in professional snooker. Only eight recognised maximums were achieved in professional competition in the 1980s, but 26 occurred in the 1990s, 35 in the 2000s and 86 in the 2010s. As of the 2025 UK Championship qualifying, 78 officially recognised professional maximums have been made thus far in the 2020s.[9] Since the 1980s, there have been various prizes awarded for maximum breaks. In addition to the 147 bonuses on offer at some tournaments, since the 2023–24 season the World Snooker Tour has offered a £147,000 prize to a player who makes two maximum breaks during a season's Triple Crown events as well as the Saudi Arabia Snooker Masters. This prize can be won up to three times per season, including multiple times by the same player.[10][11][12]
Joe Davis compiled the first officially recognised maximum break on 22 January 1955, in a match against Willie Smith at Leicester Square Hall, London.[13] The Billiards Association and Control Council initially refused to accept the break since the match was not played under their rules. At the time, the professional game used a rule (now standard, see rules of snooker) whereby after a foul a player could compel the offender to play the next stroke. It was not until a meeting on 20 March 1957 that the break was officially recognised and Davis was presented with a certificate to commemorate his achievement.[14] The match between Davis and Smith was played as part of a series of events marking the closure of Leicester Square Hall; known as Thurston's Hall until 1947,[15] the venue had hosted many important billiards and snooker matches since its opening in 1901, including twelve World Snooker Championship finals.[16] John Spencer compiled a maximum break in the 1979 Holsten Lager International, but it did not count as an official maximum, however, as the break was made on a non‑templated table used during the event.[17] The first official maximum break in professional competition was compiled by Steve Davis in the 1982 Classic at the Queen Elizabeth Hall in Oldham, against John Spencer.[18] This was also the first televised maximum break.[19][20] For his achievement, Davis won a Lada car provided by the event's sponsors.[21] The following year, Cliff Thorburn became the first player to make a maximum at the World Championship in the fourth frame of his second round match against Terry Griffiths.[21]
Before the 1994–95 season, the maximum break remained a rare feat, with only 15 official maximums compiled altogether. However, beginning in the 1994–95 season, at least one maximum break has been achieved every season thereafter. There were 13 maximums scored in each of the 2016–17, 2022–23 and 2023–24 seasons. This was the highest number until the 2024–25 season during which there were 15 maximums made.[9][22] As of the 2025 UK Championship qualifying rounds, there have already been 16 maximums made in the 2025–26 season, breaking the record set in the previous season.[23]
Mark Selby made the 100th officially recognised maximum break in professional competition on 7 December 2013 in the seventh frame of his semi‑final match against Ricky Walden at the UK Championship.[24][25] As of 24 November 2025,[23] 233 official maximum breaks have been recorded in professional competition,[5][26] with the 200th being made by Joe O'Connor at the 2024 Championship League.[27] Englishman Ronnie O'Sullivan has compiled 17 official competitive maximum breaks, the most achieved by any professional player.[28] Following him are John Higgins with 13, Stephen Hendry with 11, Shaun Murphy with 10, Stuart Bingham and Judd Trump with 9 and Ding Junhui with 7. O'Sullivan also holds the record for the fastest competitive maximum break at just over five minutes, which he set at the 1997 World Championship.[7]
On 30 April 2023, Selby made a maximum break in the 16th frame during the 2023 World Championship final against Luca Brecel, the first achieved in a World Championship final.[29] On 7 December 2023, Murphy made a maximum break in his first‑round match against Bulcsú Révész in the 2023 Shoot Out, the first ever compiled at the Shoot Out, which is played under a variation of snooker rules, with a shot clock and fouls awarding ball in hand.[30][31] On 5 October 2024, in his winning run in event 3, Zhao Xintong made the first ever maximum break on the Q Tour, the secondary snooker tour that serves as a qualification route to the main professional tour, in his 4–1 win over Shaun Liu.[32][33][34]
At least nine players have missed the final black on a score of 140: Robin Hull, Ken Doherty, Barry Pinches, Mark Selby,[35] Michael White,[36] Thepchaiya Un-Nooh (twice in the 2015–16 season and once in the 2024–25 season),[40] Liang Wenbo in a qualifying match at the 2018 World Championship, after he had already made a maximum earlier in the same match,[41] and both Joe O'Connor and Jack Lisowski at the 2025 Championship League.[42][43] Breaks above 147 are possible when an opponent fouls and leaves a free ball with all 15 reds still remaining on the table. A break greater than 147 has happened only once in professional competition, when Jamie Burnett made a break of 148 at the qualifying stage of the 2004 UK Championship.[1][2] Jamie Cope compiled a break of 155 points, the highest possible free‑ball break, during practice in 2005.[44] Alex Higgins is said by some players to have attained the same feat.[45]
The first known maximum break in practice was made by Murt O'Donoghue at Griffith, Australian Capital Territory, Australia, on 26 September 1934.[17][46][47][48] Joe Davis compiled the first official 147 against Willie Smith in an exhibition match on 22 January 1955 at Leicester Square Hall, London.[19][49] Rex Williams made the first maximum break in a competitive match against Manuel Francisco, Professionals v. Amateurs, on 23 December 1965 in Cape Town.[47][50]
John Spencer made the first maximum compiled in professional competition on 13 January 1979 at the Holsten Lager Tournament against Cliff Thorburn, but it was not officially ratified due to oversized pockets.[17] The break was not caught on video as the television crew were away on a tea break.[47][51] The first official maximum break in professional competition was made by Steve Davis in the 1982 Lada Classic against Spencer.[17] This was also the first televised 147.[19] Thorburn became the first player to make a maximum break at the World Snooker Championship.[52]
In March 1989, Thorburn also became the first player to make two competitive maximum breaks. In November 1995 Hendry became the first player to make two televised maximum breaks.[53][54] Mink Nutcharut made a 147 in a March 2019 practice match, believed to be the only maximum break achieved by a woman in any match.[55]
There have been 15 maximums made at the World Championship—at the Crucible Theatre in Sheffield, England—by 11 players. Thorburn[52] was followed by Jimmy White,[56] Stephen Hendry (three times),[57][18][58] Ronnie O'Sullivan (three times),[59][60][61] Mark Williams,[62] Ali Carter,[63] John Higgins,[64] Neil Robertson,[65] Kyren Wilson,[66] Mark Selby[67] and Mark Allen.[22] There have also been eight maximums made during qualifying for the World Championship, by six players. These were by Robert Milkins (twice),[68][69] Gary Wilson,[70] Liang Wenbo,[71] Graeme Dott,[72] Noppon Saengkham[73] and Jackson Page (twice in the same match).[74][75]
More than one official maximum break has been compiled in the same event on more than twenty occasions. The first tournament with more than one maximum break was the 1992 Matchroom League, in which John Parrott and Stephen Hendry each made a 147 break.[76][77] The first time that two maximum breaks were made in the same ranking tournament was at the 1999 British Open, where Jason Prince made one during qualifying and Graeme Dott at the main event.[78] This was repeated at the 2000 Scottish Open, with Stephen Maguire in qualifying and Ronnie O'Sullivan at the main event.[79] The 2008 World Snooker Championship was the first event where two maximum breaks (by O'Sullivan and Carter) were televised.[80] Two maximum breaks (by Neil Robertson and Noppon Saengkham) were also televised at the 2019 Welsh Open.[81]
Three official maximums at the same WPBSA (World Professional Billiards and Snooker Association) event have been achieved six times. The first was at the 2012 UK Championship, when Andy Hicks and Jack Lisowski both compiled one each in qualifying and John Higgins compiled one in the televised stages.[82] The second time was at the 2017 German Masters, where Ali Carter and Ross Muir both compiled one each during qualifying and Tom Ford during the televised stages.[83] The third time was at the 2024 Championship League by Kyren Wilson in Group 3,[84] by John Higgins in Group 5,[85] and by Joe O'Connor in Group 7.[27] The fourth time was at the 2025 Championship League by Jak Jones in Group 2,[86] by David Gilbert in Group 7,[87] and by Mark Selby in the Winners' Group.[88] The fifth time was at the 2025 Saudi Arabia Snooker Masters, with Thepchaiya Un-Nooh compiling one in his third-round match,[89] and O'Sullivan making a brace in the semi-final.[28] The sixth time was at the 2025 Xi'an Grand Prix, where Zhou Yuelong made one in qualifying,[90] and both Judd Trump and Aaron Hill made maximums at the main stage.[91]
The 2012 FFB Snooker Open,[92] 2017 German Masters,[93] 2018 Paul Hunter Classic,[94] 2025 Saudi Arabia Snooker Masters,[8] and 2025 Xi'an Grand Prix[91] are the only events where two maximums were made on the same day.
Mark Davis, Jackson Page and Ronnie O'Sullivan are the only players to make two official maximum breaks in professional competition at the same event. Mark Davis became the first player to do so, when he compiled two 147s at the 2017 Championship League.[95] In the third round of the qualifying stage for the 2025 World Championship, Jackson Page made two maximums in his 10–2 win over Allan Taylor, with the first in the eighth frame on 13 April 2025 and the second in the twelfth frame the following day.[74][75] This made him the first player to make two maximums in a professional competitive match.[96][97] On 15 August 2025, in his 6–3 win over Chris Wakelin in the semi-finals of the 2025 Saudi Arabia Snooker Masters, Ronnie O'Sullivan made maximums in the first and seventh frames of the match, becoming the only player to make two maximums in a one-session match or on the same day.[8][28]
There have been several noteworthy instances of multiple maximum breaks outside of sanctioned professional competition. Peter Ebdon compiled two maximum breaks during an 11‑frame exhibition match at Eastbourne Police Club on 15 April 1996,[citation needed] and in 2003 he also compiled two consecutive maximum breaks against Steve Davis in an exhibition match.[17][47] In 2009 Jimmy White and Ronnie O'Sullivan compiled consecutive maximum breaks at an exhibition match in Ireland,[98] and later in the same year Mark King and Joe Jogia replicated the feat at the Grove Open.[99] The only known instance of more than two maximum breaks being compiled at a single event on the same day is during the Buckley's Bitter Challenge; three 147s were compiled on 8 February 1998, by Matthew Stevens, Ryan Day and Tony Chappel, but were not officially ratified.[100] The only player known to have made more than two maximum breaks on a single occasion is Adrian Gunnell, who compiled three maximums in four frames at a club in Telford in 2003 while practising against Ian Duffy.[101][102]
John Higgins, Ronnie O'Sullivan and Thepchaiya Un-Nooh are the only players to record maximum breaks in consecutive ranking events. Higgins made maximums at the LG Cup and the British Open in 2003,[103][104] O'Sullivan at the Northern Ireland Trophy and another at the UK Championship in 2007,[105][106] and Un-Nooh at the Saudi Arabia Snooker Masters and Wuhan Open in 2025.[107]
Only ten maximums have been made in final‑frame deciders. These are: Hendry's at the 1997 Charity Challenge,[108] O'Sullivan's at the 2007 UK Championship,[106] both of Mark Davis's at the 2017 Championship League,[111] Martin Gould's at the 2018 Championship League,[112] Ford's at the 2019 English Open,[113] both Day's and John Higgins's at the 2020 Championship League,[116] Marco Fu's at the 2022 Hong Kong Masters,[117] and Shaun Murphy's at the 2023 Snooker Shoot Out.[31]
Hendry, John Higgins, Bingham, O'Sullivan, Murphy, Robertson, Judd Trump, Selby and Zhang Anda have made maximums in finals of tournaments. Hendry has made three: the first at the 1997 Charity Challenge,[108] the second at the 1999 British Open[118] and the third at the 2001 Malta Grand Prix.[119] Higgins at the 2003 LG Cup[103] and at the 2012 Shanghai Masters,[120] Bingham at the 2012 Wuxi Classic,[121] O'Sullivan at the 2014 Welsh Open,[122] Murphy at the 2014 Ruhr Open,[123] Robertson at the 2015 UK Championship,[124] Trump at the 2022 Turkish Masters[125] and the 2022 Champion of Champions[126] and Zhang at the 2023 International Championship.[127] Selby made a maximum in the 2023 World Championship final, becoming the first player to do so at that stage of the tournament.[67] Selby's and Robertson's maximums are the only ones compiled in the finals of Triple Crown events.
O'Sullivan's 147 break in the first‑round match against Mick Price at the 1997 World Championship set the record for the fastest maximum in the history of the game. For many years Guinness World Records recorded the time of the break at 5 minutes and 20 seconds.[128] However an investigation undertaken by Deadspin in 2017 revealed that the time recorded by Guinness was incorrect because the timer was started too early on the BBC footage.[7][129] Breaks are not officially timed in snooker and the official rules of snooker do not specify how they should be timed, instead leaving the timing to the discretion of the broadcaster. The only timing methodology World Snooker sanctions in its events is the one employed in shot clock events where timing for a player's shot begins when the balls have come to rest from his opponent's previous shot. Under this convention the break would have been timed at 5 minutes and 15 seconds. World Snooker has since suggested that a break starts when the player strikes the cueball for the first time in a break which would result in a time of 5 minutes and 8 seconds; this is the time that both World Snooker and Guinness World Records now officially acknowledge.[59][6]
The youngest player to have made an officially recognised maximum break in professional competition is Thanawat Thirapongpaiboon, who compiled a 147 at the 2010 Rhein–Main Masters aged 16 years and 312 days.[130] Sean Maddocks is recognised by Guinness World Records as the youngest player to make a maximum break in any recognised competition. Maddocks was 15 years and 90 days old when he achieved the feat at the LiteTask Pro‑Am series in Leeds on 9 July 2017.[131][132] Judd Trump is known to have made a 147 at the Potters Under‑16 Tournament in 2004 at the age of 14 years and 206 days; however, this break is not recognised by Guinness World Records.[130] The youngest player to have made a televised maximum is Ding Junhui, who was aged 19 years and 288 days when he achieved a 147 at the 2007 Masters.[133][134]
The oldest player to have made a maximum in professional competition is Ronnie O'Sullivan, who made two 147 breaks in his 2025 Saudi Arabia Snooker Masters semi-final against Chris Wakelin, when he was aged 49 years and 253 days.[8][28] Former professional Darren Morgan made a maximum break in an amateur Seniors event in 2023 at the age of 56 years and 261 days; this possibly makes him the oldest player to achieve a maximum break in competition.[135]
In professional tournaments there was usually a substantial prize awarded to any player achieving a 147 break. For example, Ronnie O'Sullivan's maximum at the 1997 World Championship earned him £165,000. Of this, £147,000 was for making the 147 break and £18,000 was for achieving the highest break of the tournament.[136]
In the 2011–12 season World Snooker introduced a roll‑over system for the maximum break prize money, the "rolling 147 prize".[137] A maximum break is worth £5,000 in the televised stages and £500 in qualifying stages of major ranking events. There is a £500 prize in the Players Tour Championship events from the last 128 onwards.[138] If a maximum is not made then the prize rolls over to the next event until somebody wins it.[137][needs update]
At the 2016 Welsh Open, Ronnie O'Sullivan defeated Barry Pinches 4–1 in the first round. In the fifth frame of the match, O'Sullivan declined the opportunity to make a maximum break, potting the pink off the penultimate red and completing a break of 146. He stated afterwards that the prize money of £10,000 was not worthy of a 147. World Snooker chairman Barry Hearn called the decision "unacceptable" and "disrespectful".[139] Individual prizes for a maximum break in the vast majority of tournaments have generally been phased out, since the start of the 2019–20 season: during that season, a £1 million bonus was offered if 20 or more were made during the season.[140] The prize would be split among all players who had made at least one qualifying break, with each player receiving an equal share for every break made.[140] The bonus was not claimed, and as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic later that season, it was discontinued and has not since been re-offered. Despite maximum break prizes being phased out in most cases, they have been partially re-introduced at the World Snooker Championship, where £40,000 is now offered to those who compile one at the main stages of the tournament.
Beginning with the 2023–24 season, WST has started offering a £147,000 bonus to any player making two maximum breaks during the season's Triple Crown events.[10] Since the 2024–25 season, the bonus has been extended to include any maximum breaks made at the Saudi Arabia Snooker Masters.[11][12] As of 2025, this prize has been awarded twice: first when Jackson Page made two maximums in the same match during the 2025 World Snooker Championship qualifying; second when O'Sullivan made two maximums in the same match at the 2025 Saudi Arabia Snooker Masters.[75][97][141][8]
A break higher than 147 can be achieved when an opponent fouls before any reds are potted and leaves the incoming player snookered on all 15 reds. The player can nominate one of the other colours as a red, known as a free ball, which carries the same value as a red for just that shot. If the free ball is potted, the referee places this coloured ball back on its original location, de facto creating a setup as if there were 16 reds in total, thus creating a potential maximum break of 155 if a player starts from a free ball position.[24]
In October 2004, during qualifying for the UK Championship, Jamie Burnett became the only player to record a break of more than 147 in tournament play, when he scored 148 against Leo Fernandez. He took the brown as the free ball, then potted the brown again followed by the 15 reds with 12 blacks, two pinks and a blue, then the six colours.[17][1][2]
Some breaks exceeding 147 have been reported in non‑tournament settings:
