Cahill pulls off Ding stunner
Print Edition
TWO-TIME former champion Ding Junhui of China crashed out of the UK Championship after losing 5-6 to 18-year-old James Cahill in the early hours of yesterday.
Cahill, the world No. 100, cruised into a 5-1 lead in the third-round match at York’s Barbican Centre, only for Ding to fight back and take the contest to a deciding frame.
The world No. 3, UK champion in 2005 and 2009, had chances to complete an improbable comeback, but a mistake enabled Cahill to pounce and book a spot in the last 16.
Ronnie O’Sullivan had earlier taken his place in the next round by overcoming the pain of a broken ankle — sustained whilst out jogging — to beat English compatriot Ben Woollaston 6-2.
Meanwhile, defending champion Neil Robertson of Australia overcame home favorite Peter Ebdon 6-2.
