Nüßle loses at debut on World Snooker Tour
Florian Nüßle lost on Monday in his biggest appearance to date among the world snooker elite! The Styrian lost 1:4 to top star Mark Williams in the first round of the Welsh Open.
At the Welsh Open, the 23-year-old Styrian lost 1:4 to three-time world champion and local hero Mark Williams. Unfortunately for Nüßle, the Welshman was in excellent form, making three "century breaks", i.e. shots of at least 100 points. "You don't often manage three century breaks in a best-of-7 match," beamed the top star.
However, Nüßle, who had already reached the quarter-finals of the completely different shoot-out this season, managed the frame of honor. He secured the third frame with a strong 69 break.
The European 6-Reds Snooker champion was just one of three amateur players to qualify for the tournament, which has prize money of 550,400 pounds (a good 660,300 euros).
