New Delhi, Feb 14:
Pankaj Advani continued his dream run in the BetVictor Welsh Open Pro Snooker Series as the eight-time world champion today rewrote history by entering the quarterfinals of a major ranking event, defeating Scotland’s Graeme Dott 4-1 at Newport, Wales.
Continuing his great run after ousting World No. 4 Shaun Murphy in the pre-quarterfinals, the reigning world billiards champion comfortably defeated 2006 world champion Dott to once again stamp his authority on the professional snooker circuit.
Advani had yesterday become the first Indian cueist ever to reach the pre-quarters of the Welsh Open when he overcame a spirited challenge from the former world champion Murphy 4-3 in the Round of 32. (PTI)
