Ronnie O'Sullivan became the first man to reach 1,000 career centuries as he sealed a 10-4 win over Neil Robertson in the Players Championship final.
The five-time world champion went into the match needing three more centuries to reach four figures.
He made two in taking a 7-2 lead at the end of the first session in Preston and achieved the landmark with a 134 to secure his title.
Stephen Hendry (775) and John Higgins (745) are the only others to pass 700.
