‘Did I hear that correctly’ – TNT Sports announce never-before-seen feature for World Snooker Championships
TNT SPORTS have left fans shocked after announcing their commentary team for the World Snooker Championship.
Action at the Crucible gets underway on Saturday and it is the first time TNT Sports will broadcast live sessions following its merge with Eurosport.
The BBC will continue to air the bulk of the sessions in Sheffield, with every match available on iPlayer.
But the switch to TNT Sports means fans will access an all-new commentary team.
That includes chief commentator Darren Fletcher, who is often heard on Champions League matches and at big boxing events.
He is often accompanied by Ally McCoist for those big European nights, and the Scot is set to join him for the snooker.
The news was confirmed during Arsenal’s 2-1 win over Real Madrid on Wednesday – much to the surprise of viewers.
One reacted saying: “Commentators announced by TNT Sports for the World Snooker Championship for next Wednesday night’s session on April 23…Darren Fletcher and Ally McCoist.
“I kid you not.”
Another added: “Ally McCoist commentating on Snooker. Incredible.”
