BetVictor Scottish Open Qualifiers Day Two

Scotland’s Anthony McGill maintained his good form with a 4-1 win over Liam Davies to qualify for the BetVictor Scottish Open. 

McGill enjoyed a return to form at the recent British Open, where he made the final before just falling short 10-7 against Shaun Murphy. Breaks of 85, 54, 89 and 79 helped him to ease to victory today and make it to his home event.

Sam Craigie continued his return from injury with a 4-1 win over former Crucible quarter-finalist Jamie Jones to make the final stages. 

Newcastle’s Craigie spent the entirety of last season out with a neck injury, which he admitted could have ended his career. Now the 32-year-old is determined to make up for lost time. He top scored with 87 in today’s defeat of Jones. 

Ben Mertens prevailed 4-2 in an all-Belgian clash with Julien Leclercq. Mertens top scored with 91 in this afternoon’s victory. 

World number 38 Ben Woollaston made a break of 91 in the deciding frame to score a 4-3 defeat of Liam Highfield and earn his place in Edinburgh, while Iran’s Amir Sarkhosh crafted runs of 60, 54 and 62 to beat former Welsh Open winner Jordan Brown 4-1.

There were a few surprises yesterday, and heartbreaks too …

Iran’s Amir Sarkosh defeated Jordan Brown by 4-1. I’m not sure many expected that although, having watched Amir on a few occasions previously, it doesn’t surprise me that much. He’s a very capable player, is Amir.

Nineteen years old Artemijs Zizins beat Jimmy Roberson by 4-2 in a hard fought and relatively low scoring encounter. The only “flamboyance” in that match came from Zizins beautiful red hair… The highest break was a 73 by Zizins in frame 3, whilst Robertson had two breaks of 62, the second one coming in the last frame that he went on to lose on the colours… Zizins is only 19 years old but showed a lot of maturity in that match.

The match between the Belgian boys was another hard fought affair. They both can play and score much better, but what’s at stake in those qualifiers weight the players down. Ben seems to deal with that better than Julien. Julien is supremely talented but it only comes out fully when he’s able to play purely on instinct. The Shootout suited him because there was no time to overthink or ponder on what happened before in the match.
