And earlier this year he was chosen to represent Scotland at the European Pool Championship in Malta.

Discussing his achievement, Wilson said: “I’ve only started putting in the real time and effort the last couple of years.

“To improve my game and, even a year ago, I’d have been absolutely nowhere near being able to achieve this.

“I’m extremely proud of myself yet still have a long way to go to get where I want to be in the sport.

“Representing Scotland has given me a confidence boost to progress even further.”

Wilson – who works at a Wetherspoons called The James Watt in Greenock, Scotland – was given time off by his boss to practice and compete.

Pub shift manager, Tayrn Coyle, said: “We are all very proud of Jamie playing for Scotland.

“He absolutely loves the game and has worked so hard for this.”
