Mark Allen won the Masters on Sunday night, defeating Kyren Wilson 10-7 at Alexandra Palace.

The fourth frame of the match was one which saw plenty of disruption. Along with being briefly halted because a wasp landed on the table - referee Olivier Marteel took care of that invader - Wilson had to line up to pot the green four times in the frame.

Several false starts were caused by a fan in the crowd using their phone. It appears they were attempting to take a photo, interfering with Wilson's attention during a crucial point in the frame.

Despite Marteel first asking the fan to switch off their phone and then inquiring if security had spotted the culprit, the fan continued to be disruptive.

Once identified, the referee instructed that the fan be ejected from the arena. Wilson stepped in, suggesting that the fan simply put their phone on silent rather than be thrown out.

Despite the player's intervention, the fan was escorted from the arena.

Wilson went onto pot the green. Though, he would lose an error-filled from as Allen drew level at 2-2.
