He also begins acting more and more on his own with cases instead of working with his residents. [116] He won his fourth ranking title in March 2011,[117] with a 40 victory over Martin Gould in the finals of the Players Tour Championship. Shaun Robert Murphy is the main titular protagonist of The Good Doctor. After trailing 05 at the beginning, Murphy eventually lost the match 310. Shaun was picked up by a police officer, who tried to take him back to his parents; at this point, he fell apart in the back of the squad car, screaming and crying about Steve's promise to him. In the end, Shaun himself decides he wants the error reported, and he and Glassman go to Andrews office together to make a statement. At the same time, Shaun attempts to lose his virginity to Carly, but has trouble going all the way with her, seeking advice from Glassman who distances himself from the issue on Debbie's advice. In the inaugural Shanghai Masters, he was defeated 25 by Ian McCulloch in the first round. As Shaun recovers, he is visited by Andrews who learned of Shaun's failure to show up to his interview and tries to get Shaun to face reality and move on. When Shaun went into sensory overload again during a C-section, his first solo surgery, he was able to fight through it and come up with a solution to the problem. In Waiting, Shaun is assigned a case of a young boy with bullet shrapnel that traveled to his brain and may result in his death. Shaun is eventually allowed to speak in front of the board, and his moving speech has the board members rescind their decision and Shaun is welcomed into St. Bonaventures residency program under the condition that if he is anything less than excellent, Dr. Glassman will have to give up his position as hospital president. [225][226], Murphy is noted for his straight cue action[12]which Steve Davis once called "the best cue action I've ever seen"[12]his long potting,[42] and his breakbuilding. It gets Shaun into serious trouble with the new Chief of Surgery, Dr. Jackson Han despite his friends arguing his case. As a symbolic gesture, Lim has Shaun put in the last stitch. Together, the two take an unsanctioned road trip in Leas vintage car while Glassman worries about an AWOL and radio-silent Shaun. After seeing how devastated Shaun is, Lim gets Beth to change her mind. The former World Snooker Championship winner is searching for his first tournament win since triumphing at the same event three years ago, and on Saturday came up against Junxu Pang in the semi final. At the same time, Shaun urges Glassman to get a second opinion, more tests and more imagining to truly confirm the diagnosis. Both Shaun and Lea are heartbroken that their baby will die, and Lea decides that she wants to terminate the pregnancy through a D&C rather than induce labor. She tells Shaun that they both need to think about whether this is the right time to raise a child. Sophie is currently developing a reality show that features atypical couples, and she wants Shaun and Lea for her pilot. [90][91] He went on to defeat Fu 133, Hendry 1311, and Neil Robertson 1714, to earn a place in his second world final with two-time world champion Higgins as his opponent. [172] Two weeks later, he reached the final of the General Cup but lost 67 against Ali Carter. After deciding to go through with the wedding, a small civil ceremony at City Hall, Glassman invites Shaun and Carly to attend. In the U.S. version of the show, that doctor, Shaun Murphy, has autism and savant syndrome.
