MOTHERWELL.
Scotland, Sept 25: Thai snooker ace James Watt-ana reached the semi-finals of the
Scottish Masters here on Thursday night and was then backed to win the tournament by the man he had just beaten, reports AFP.
World number three Jimy White was mightily impressed by Wattana's 6-2 triumph in the quarter-finals, which improved the Thal's record against the Englishman to nine wins in 14 meetings.
"Although it's difficult to predict something like this. James showed that he's scoring heavily when given the chance and playing a danger ous brand of snooker." said White. who was suffering from
, a heavy cold.
Wattana. who triumphed Inside 103 minute, was not so’ sure, having been an unconvincing 5-3 first-round winner over Scotland's Alan McManus.
Tm not saying I'm playing will enough to win the title, but I played twice as well as I'd done in my previous match." he commented.
This is a great start to the season for me. Jimmy had his chances in the first few frames, but he missed a lot and 1 didn't make many mistakes."
White should have pocketed frame one. mtsculng badly when 57-2 ahead. He levelled at 1-1 with a 48 break, but soon fell 5-1 down as Masters debutant Wattana notched runs of 91! 51. 56. 67 and 48.
Although White managed to clinch frame seven with a 62
clearance after trailing 53-0, the world number seven was not to be denied his semifinal place and finished off a surprisingly error-strewn match In another 13 minutes.
White, a notoriously slow starter to the season, typically refused to use his cold as an excuse for defeat
1 didn't feel too bad. but at this stage of the season It's just about practising potting balls." said the English left-hander.
Wattana. guaranteed 11.000 pounds, now takes on England's Neal Foulds In Saturday's second semifinal.
Quarter final result:
James Wattana (Thailand) but Jimmy White (England) 6-2 (frame scores: 70-59. 37-73. 91-8. 66-33. 123-0. 89-16, 53-62, 62-46).
