Home Nations £1m tournament

Mark Selby is already out after losing a deciding frame to fellow Leicester cueman Louis Heathcote.
Judd Trump and Jak Jones both won comfortably though.

Ronnie withdrew again.

Been watching Hossein Vafaei v Jimmy White on Eurosport.
The quality of safety play from both has been absolutely outstanding.

Jimmy scraped himself through in the end. Big Bob Milkins managed a win for a change, too.

Good to see Jimmy white still providing some magic feels like he's been reborn since winning the seniors world championship a few years ago

John Higgins, Mark Allen and Barry Hawkins all won but Jack Lisowski was dumped out.

Best news of the day though.......Misery Maguire is out .

Carter lost today. Kyren was taken to a decider by the fearsome, er, David Grace.

Bingham and Murphy sailed through late on. Trump was pushed by Selt but prevailed. Big Bob Milkins got beat.

Former champion Mark Allen is out after a 4-3 defeat to rank outsider Oliver Lines.

Luca Brecel also fell to defeat against Pang Junxu by a 4-1 scoreline.

Jimmy White got beaten 4-2 by Minister of Defence Martin O'Donnell.

And Barry Hawkins has seen off Wizard of Wishaw John Higgins 4-2.

Brecel's talking about his Ironman training, which is a novel excuse.
