Elsewhere this evening David Gilbert produced an excellent performance in beating Mark Allen 6-1 .

Reigning champion Judd Trump out.
Beaten 6-3 by Shaun Murphy.
Curiously despite losing the match, all the frames won by Trump were with centuries.
Snooker can be a weird game sometimes.

I do like the BBC's presentation, it's an antidote to the rush and fuss of life.
I don't follow the players that much but as with F1 I watch the presenters. I'm warming to John Parrot more and of course I do think that Hazel Irving is a delight.

Good ol' John Higgins stopped the "upset results" rot with a 6-1 win over Pob Hawkins.

Lisowski got a 2-0 lead over Kyren Wilson, but then lost 6-2

As the referee demonstrated, it's not a good idea to pick up a wasp. They need to get Rentokil in there, every match has been interrupted by them.

Bingham squashed Mark Williams 6-2. I know Higgins often does these "I'm fed up, I'm gonna retire" bits, but Williams is the one I would expect to knock it on the head sooner rather than later.
