The 2025 Scottish Open Qualifiers – Day 4

Here is the (short) report by WST on what happened on the fourth and last day of the 2025 Scottish Open Qualifiers:

BetVictor Scottish Open Qualifiers Day Four

Liam Pullen scored a 4-0 whitewash win over Daniel Wells to earn his place in the final stages of the BetVictor Scottish Open. 

The 20-year-old Yorkshireman is in a rich vein of form, having made a maiden quarter-final at the recent Xi’an Grand Prix, where today’s opponent Wells was a beaten semi-finalist. 

Breaks of 72, 50 and 72 helped Pullen to a comfortable win today. He now progresses to the final stages, which take place in Edinburgh from Monday December 15th. 

Quickfire Thai Thepchaiya Un-Nooh scored a 4-1 win over compatriot Chatchapong Nasa. He averaged just 17.1 seconds a shot in a win where he top scored with a stunning run of 144.

Robbie Williams beat Women’s World Champion Bai Yulu 4-0, while Poland’s Antoni Kowalski qualified with a 4-2 win over David Lilley.

As always, all the detailed results are available on snooker.org

And, as always, a lot of interesting results have been “overlooked” by the guy or gall in charge of reporting for WST.

  • Luca Brecel didn’t show up, giving Steven Hallworth the first win of the day. No explanation has been given so far. Steven won’t care and his fans didn’t complain too much … 😉.
  • Chang Bingyu whitewashed Xu Si in style: he produced a break over 50 in every frame.
  • As mentioned by WST Robbie Williams whitewashed Bai Yulu. What they didn’t mention is that Bai actually scored the only break over 50 in that match…
  • Ishpreet Sing Chada beat Dylan Emery by 4-3 in a quite extraordinary match. Dylan lead by 3-0. He had scored breaks of 73, 67 and 70 by that point, and had another 58 break in frame 4, a frame he lost by 60-58. Ishpreet also got a 58 break in that pivotal frame, and then went on to win the three remaining frames without any big break. Dylan may have felt that he was the better player out there, he was certainly the heaviest scorer but a big break wins you only one frame…
  • Antoni Kowalski beat David Lilley by 4-2, with break of 64, 66 and 52, as mentioned by WST. This is a very good result for Antoni because David is the kind of hard match player who usually causes problems to the young ones who are not used to that type of match.
  • Wang Yuchen also got a good result: he beat the experienced Ricky Walden by 4-3. Ricky made two centuries in that match, 112 and 113, in frames 3 and 6. All the other frames were closely contested. Wang’s only break of note was a 67 in frame 5.
  • Stan Mood and He Guoqiang won the two last matches on the day, both by 4-1. He’s opponent was Alex Ursenbacher who had a 81 break in the only frame he won but other than scored only 25 points in the four frames he lost.
