World billiards champion Pankaj Advani became the first and only Indian to enter the top eight of a major event on the professional snooker circuit as he easily beat Scotland's Graeme Dott 4-1 to qualify for the quarter-finals of the Welsh Open tournament yesterday
Advani, who next meets the winner of World No 2 Judd Trump vs Andrew Higginson match, said: “Being the only Indian to make it to the quarters of any professional snooker ranking tournament, is a huge high for me.”
