Snooker star Shaun Murphy has revealed he's had gastric sleeve surgery to get his faltering career back on track.
Murphy, who won his sole world title way back in 2005, had admitted to becoming sick of being "fat-shamed" on social media, whilst personal problems also contributed to his decision. He went under the knife in May, and hopes the procedure will help him turn his life around.
Murphy, 40, endured a difficult start to 2022, r eceiving death threats over comments made about amateur players at the UK Championships last November. The likes of Ronnie O'Sullivan also s cathingly criticised the player dubbed 'The Magician'.
