Last year he was 11-5 up against Dominic Dale then Dale fought back, but Hawkins won 13-12 and today Barry was 7-2 up against Matthew Selt and then won 10-9. Neil Robertson comfortably through to the next round with a 10-2 win over Jamie Jones.

Four-time world champion John Higgins went out 13-9 to Ding Junhui who goes through to only his second world quarter-final.

BuzzJack Legend Joined: 13 April 2007 Posts: 36,655 User: 3,272	I seem to be making a habit of only seeing the end of sessions. I saw the last couple frames tonight, including Bingham finishing with a bit of a flukey red from a snooker, and then missing a fairly simple blue.

Well done to Stuart Bingham who has tried for 20 years as a professional to win it at the age of 38 which makes him the oldest winner since Ray Reardon. The bottle that Stuart showed during the last two frames was fantastic. Shaun Murphy a gallant runner-up and showing some great sportsmanship in defeat.
