He didn't, but Gary Wilson got rid of Stephen Hendry, so it's not been all bad.

Selby whitewashed by Ali Carter. Jimmy White also whitewashed.

Trump lost to Slessor, who then ran into Ali Carter who knocked in a 147... busy old day.

I further note Slessor in fact won 3-1 against Carter. Looking good for a lower ranked player winning, as all the top guys keep falling away...

Quarter-finals:

QF1: Lu Ning v Jimmy Robertson
QF2: Zhou Yuelong v Elliot Slessor
QF3: Mark Williams v Ricky Walden
QF4: David Gilbert v Gary Wilson

Williams and his comedy break-off is the highest-ranked player left.

Mark Williams v Gary Wilson final.

In the semis Williams beat Jimmy Robertson 4-1 while Wilson beat Elliot Slessor 4-3.

Every time they've said "there goes another big seed" this week, it's been followed by "but Mark Williams has found a way through". It's funny really because he really does have this sense of "well I won everything I need to, see, I got nothing to lose". Glad it's Wilson in there though.

Williams won 6-4 to claim the title. It is the 24th ranking title win of his career.

Wilson never seemed likely to run away with it. Hendry sardonically noted Mark Williams hitting a rare century (or two). Well done them both really.

Intertesting question on WWTBAM the other night got it right as well!!!

I knew the Wizard from Wishaw was Stephen Hendry the Rocket was Ronnie O Sullivan and the Jester Leiceser was Mark Selby and knew Stephen was champion before either of them but who is Ace in the Pack?

Ace in the pack is Judd Trump
