Q-Finals
Ross got off to a great start winning the opening frame but back came the Austrian to level, Ross seemed to be going 2-1 but Florian fought back to steal it on the black. The Austrian then fired in a superb 85 break to go 3-1 up and won the next to win the match 4-1. Well done Ross on a great run and Good luck to Florian in the semis.
Well Done Team Ireland
All four Irish players were fantastic and represented our Country with pride. Each one of them should be very proud as the standard is very high.
