RE: German Masters
Bai Yulu was unlucky to get an opponent as tough as Yuan Sijun in the 2nd qualifying round, and she lost 5-1. But she went out in a blaze of glory, making a fantastic 128 break in frame 5, before Sijun closed out the match in frame 6. Better news for Reanne Evans in her first round match, winning her first match this season against a male opponent, beating Amir Sarkhosh 5-3.
High drama in the 2nd round match between Artemijs Zizins and Matthew Selt. Selt started off with a fantastic 143 clearance in the first frame, but he soon found himself 4-2 down. He managed to pull the score back to 4-4. In the decider, Zizins fluked frame ball, the final red. As the red rolled from one cushion to another and dropped in, Selt was heard to loudly exclaim "Oh My God!". Zizins added the blue then the yellow and he was on a break of 70. Selt got up and conceded, then walked off. As Zizins was pleading in vain to the referee to be allowed to continue his break, an official was heard in the background trying to get Selt to come back. The Discovery Plus microphone picked up Selt telling the official to shut up!
Ka Wai Cheung beat Anthony Hamilton 5-2. Wins also for Sunny Akani, Liam Graham and Anton Kowalski. Scottish Open Champion Lei Peifan lost. Losses also for Bulcsu Revesz and Stuart Carrington.
