We’ve already seen a number of matches conclude in Wuhan on Tuesday morning with World No.5 Mark Selby’s exit to Xu Si the eye-catching result of the day so far.

• Chadha 2-5 Craigie
• Mertens 5-1 Dale
• Saengkham beat Dott – walkover
• Selby 4-5 Si X.
• Un-Nooh T 2-5 Selt
• Wakelin 2-5 Haotian L.

This is just their second professional meeting with Robertson winning their maiden encounter 4-2 at the Scottish Open back in 2017.

Hello and welcome to our live coverage of Day 2 from the Wuhan Open. It’s another busy day at the baize with Aussie Neil Robertson headlining the early action against Liam Highfield.

Later, Ronnie O’Sullivan takes centre stage in the 12.30pm BST matches when he locks horns with Mark Davis.

O’Sullivan made breaks of 88, 89 and 82 as he overcame the 54-year-old.

“I don’t really judge my performance, snooker’s like a game of resilience. You just have to keep going, just ignore the bad, ignore the good, ignore the average,” said O’Sullivan after.

“Just ignore as much as you can, just get your head down and pot the next ball that’s in front of you, and keep doing that for as long as you can ‘til the wheels come off.”

Asked about his beaten opponent, he had some praise, saying: “Ken, I played a lot with him as a kid. I was a kid and he was an adult. I learned a lot from Ken.”
