context_page_description: Judd Trump is an English professional snooker player from Bristol who is a former world champion and the current world number one. He has won a career total of 17 ranking titles, putting him in joint seventh place on the all-time list, and is one of 11 players to have won a career Triple Crown.
  Trump turned professional in 2005, aged 16. He had a breakthrough year in 2011 when he captured his first ranking title at the 2011 China Open, reached the final of the 2011 World Championship, and claimed his first Triple Crown title by winning the 2011 UK Championship, defeating Mark Allen 10–8 in the final.
  Although Trump had won eight ranking titles by the end of the 2017–18 snooker season, many believed that he had underachieved up to that point in his career, given his talent. During the 2018–19 snooker season, his form and focus notably improved.
context_section_description: At the start of the season Trump was ranked third in the world rankings. He began the season poorly as he lost in the first round of the Wuxi Classic, Shanghai Masters and International Championship, as well as failing to qualify for the Indian Open. In November, he reached the final of the minor-ranking Kay Suzanne Memorial Cup but lost 1–4 to Mark Allen.
  Later that month, he made the first official maximum break of his career in the Antwerp Open during a last-32 defeat against Mark Selby.
  He reached the fourth round of the UK Championship, where Allen defeated him 6–4, and he lost 5–6 to Marco Fu in the opening round of the Masters.
  In the German Masters, he dropped just four frames in winning five matches to reach his first ranking final of the season where he played Ding Junhui. Trump was two frames ahead twice in the first session but ended it level at 4–4; he then lost five of the next six frames upon resumption of play to be defeated 5–9. At the Welsh Open, he was defeated 3–4 by John Higgins in the last 16. Higgins was again the victor when the two met in the last 16 of the World Open, winning 5–4 after Trump had taken a 4–0 lead. Trump won the non-ranking Championship League title during the season by beating Martin Gould 3–1.
  Trump defeated Tom Ford and Ryan Day to reach the quarter-finals of the 2014 World Championship, where he played Neil Robertson. Trump led 6–2, 9–6, and 11–8, before Robertson launched a bold counterattack to take the last five frames and win the match 13–11. Trump received criticism for not acknowledging the fact that, during the match, Robertson had become the first player to make 100 centuries in a single season, instead choosing to walk out of the arena. He later said that Robertson's achievement meant nothing to him and he chose to congratulate his opponent after the match.
