WHITE TAKES STEP CLOSER TO PRO TOUR
Cubbington 1st player Mark White took a step closer to a pro tour place following victory at the EASB Pro-Ticket Event 4 tournament in Birmingham at the weekend. Some brilliant snooker saw him win the event in style. Defeating No.13 ranked Richard Somaroo 4-1 in the first round, which included a 117 break in the first frame. He followed this up with a 4-0 win over England international Martin O'Donnell, compiling breaks of 89 and 81. In the quarter finals he came back from 3-0 down to Event 3 winner, and No.1 ranked Adam Wicheard, knocking in breaks of 56, 44 and a 61 in the decider to win 4-3. In the semi finals he beat Daniel Ward, winning a close match 4-3. In the final he met Event 1 winner, and No.2 ranked Rob James. A brilliant performance was capped with a 130 break in a 5-1 victory. The result put Mark into a top 16 place, and a place in Stage 2, where he will compete with players from the northern section also.
