The intruder at the World Snooker Championship final has been unveiled as an adult content creator who claims she was prepared to take her top off before security stopped her.
The opening session of the final on Sunday was halted when a protester tried to approach the table. An attention-seeking woman, shouting ‘nobody pay their TV licences’, leapt onto the arena floor before being detained by referee Rob Spencer, as both Wu Yize and Shaun Murphy looked on.
Wu was set to take a shot when leading 67-31 and leading 2-0 at that point. However, the Chinese star had to step back while Spencer, a former police officer, approached the woman before security staff handled the situation.

The perpetrator has since uncovered herself as she shared an embarrassing expletive rant and claimed she was ready to take her top off.
Sasha Swan, who hilariously calls herself “your favourite crazy British girl”, said: “Yeah it was me, I did streak the snooker with my team. I didn’t manage to get them out because they kicked me out quickly.
“But who the f*** does pay their TV licence? Nobody pays their TV licence. I don’t care. F*** the BBC, f*** the snooker, f*** everybody.
“Get on my Twitter right now and you’ll see me and Ronnie O’Sullivan. I wish he was there. Big up to Ronnie O’Sullivan.”
Swan took to social media to show she wasn’t lying about meeting ‘The Rocket’ as she posted an old picture of her posing with O’Sullivan.
She also teased her Crucible plan as she wrote on Saturday: “planning something fun tomorrow! make sure ur following my insta to see what it is.”
The BBC did not show Swan being escorted out of the Crucible but commentator John Parrott apologised to viewers. “Sorry for that minor disturbance, it’s all sorted,” Parrott said.
The issue comes just 24 hours on from a member of the crowd facing ejection after shouting “never forget the Epstein files” during Wu’s clash with Mark Allen.
Their semi-final match in Sheffield was similarly halted while security intervened. Referee, Marcel Eckardt also addressed the crowd, saying: “Can you get this person out please, now please.”
Action at the Crucible will resume on Monday with Wu taking a 10-7 advantage moving into today’s conclusion having resumed the afternoon at 4-4.
Wu has set himself up to emulate countryman Zhao Xintong and keep the world title in China.
