EPTC6 Day 2 - Ryan's Day
Second day of EPTC6 in Prague today and most of the top players competing this weekend have made it through to finals day tomorrow, this includes the world no.27, Welshman Ryan Day.
|
The twice ranking event finalist has not had the best of seasons by anyone's standards. The former top 16 player has lost seven matches in the first round of PTC events and crashed out at the first hurdles in the Shanghai Masters and the 12BET.com World Open. But he showed a return to form today, beating Mark King 4-2, Mike Dunn 4-3 and Ben Woollaston 4-2. He now faces world no.24 Stuart Bingham for a place in the semi finals.
Another Welshman making strides is youngster Michael White. He impressed in beating EPTC winner Marcus Campbell 4-2. He will now face Joe Jogia in the 16. Joe has also been impressive in the PTC's this season, reaching the semi finals and the quarter finals of previous events. Other top players through to Sunday are Ken Doherty (impressive 4-0 victory over Stephen Lee), the resurgent John Higgins and Mark Allen who seems to be playing near his best once again.
Unfortunately not all the top players made it through. Most notably Neil Robertson, who lost 4-2 in the second round to Jimmy Robertson, more details here. Stephen Maguire also failed to make it through, losing 4-2 to resurgent English pro Michael Holt.
