Mick Hill is back to the winning ways, notching an 8-1 thumping over Australia’s Quinten Hann. He’ll play best mate Darren Appleton next, who just went double-hill with Jason “Dark Horse” Kirkwood and won.“I was devastated after losing my first match to Quentin Hann. I was five-four up, then he floated the black out of a snooker, that made it five all, then at six all I’ve got a really simple close—I just got to pot the ball in the middle, but it got a big kick and stopped the ball from going in. Then he broke and ran, so I lost eight-six. My next match I didn’t do a lot wrong and lost eight-three to David Alcaide—he played great. The last match there I was seven-five down, he came up dry and I ran the match out.“I started off well—the first two days and the last couple I didn’t play too good … and I’m hoping it’s gonna get better as the day goes, but I have to wait and see … I’m not the fittest bloke in the world, but I’m young, like, and pretty healthy, so it shouldn’t be a problem.”Danny Harriman won his first match of the day, meeting and defeating Lohtander 8-3. “My nerves were charged there a little bit,” he commented. “I think that guy is a good player, he just made some errors I don’t think he would normally make. I was playing pretty good. I broke the balls a couple times real good and didn’t make a ball. He was having trouble with his break also, so that table is breaking really tough.”“Some of these guys I’ve never played before and it’s surprising. There are a lot of new faces. I ve been around the pro circuit for fifteen years, but there are a lot of new faces, a lot of foreigners I have never played.”When asked about the format, he said, “I like it, it favors me. I don’t like to just play one match. I don’t play golf or do all that stuff, I just play pool. I like to play match after match—I could play ten or twelve hours a day, and it wouldn’t bother me … I run, I used to run marathons and stuff.”Quick LinksPlayer StatsPrize Money Breakdown Round 4 GROUP 76D.
