Evans Continues Perfect Start To Season
Reanne Evans made it two wins from two so far this season as she beat Lan Yuhao 4-1 to qualify for the final stages of the British Open.
Last Sunday, the 12-time World Women’s Champion earned a place at the Wuhan Open with a fine 5-4 victory over David Lilley in the qualifying round, making a break of 61 in the deciding frame. And she followed up today with a comfortable success against 16-year-old tour rookie Lan, compiling runs of 53 and 88. She’s in the draw for the last 64 in Cheltenham in September.
Scottish Open champion Lei Peifan top scored with 102 in a 4-0 win over Mateusz Baranowski while Long Zehuang edged out Thepchaiya Un-Nooh 4-3, coming from 51-5 down to snatch the decider with a 57 clearance. Robert Milkins, who could be in danger of tour relegation at the end of this season, enjoyed a much-needed 4-2 win over Fan Zhengyi.
