Judd Trump v Barry Hawkins live stream | UK Championship 2024 Final preview

Judd Trump and Barry Hawkins go head-to-head in the final of the 2024 UK Championship in York on Sunday.

The two decorated left-handers collide in a fitting climax to the season’s opening Triple Crown event as they vie for the £250,000 top prize at the Barbican.

Trump is bidding to lift this trophy for the second time, 13 years on from his maiden triumph, while Hawkins hopes to clinch a Triple Crown title for the first time after three previous final defeats.

Trump is appearing in his fourth UK Championship final, having finished runner-up in 2014 and 2020, and is already into his fourth ranking final of the season.

As well as runner-up spots at the Xi’an Grand Prix and Northern Ireland Open, Trump has claimed the Saudi Arabia Masters title this season and has reached the final in four of his eight ranking tournament appearances.

He began his campaign in York with a 6-3 win over Neil Robertson, before edging out another former champion – John Higgins – in a deciding frame.

The world number one then swept aside Zhang Anda 6-2 with the aid of four magnificent century breaks in Friday’s quarter-finals, before reeling off six consecutive frames from 2-0 down to see off rival Kyren Wilson in Saturday’s semis.

Hawkins, meanwhile, is through to his 11th ranking event final and a first at the UK Championship in what is his 20th appearance in the prestigious event.

His most recent ranking triumph came at the 2023 European Masters, and ‘The Hawk’ has built on his two previous quarter-final runs this season to move to the verge of an historic maiden Triple Crown title.

Runner-up in the 2013 World Championship and twice a Masters finalist, Hawkins has dispatched eight-time UK Champion Ronnie O’Sullivan, David Gilbert and former UK Champions Shaun Murphy and Mark Allen en route to the final.

His deciding-frame win over Allen ended after 1am following a marathon six-hour battle, and he now faces a test of stamina and mental endurance if he is to complete the job.

Of their 20 previous meetings, Trump has won 11 to Hawkins’ nine, including each of the last four since Hawkins last prevailed in the 2023 European Masters final.

The match breaks off at 1pm GMT and will be contested over the best of 11 frames at the York Barbican Centre.
