Meanwhile, former world champion Graeme Dott suffered a humilating 10-1 defeat to Joe Perry, 1213.00 to win the World Championship.
Perry goes on to play Stephen Maguire in the last 16, while Dott admitted after his loss: "I played terrible. I don't think I've played worse, not only at the Crucible but as a professional. I just couldn't pot a ball.
"I've not really played well all season. But normally when I come here I play pretty well, but you can't rely on playing well here all the time. You're eventually due a stinker. But to play as bad as that is hard to understand, it's demoralising."
