Mick Hill is still on course for a unique double at the WEPF World 8-ball Pool Championships in Blackpool. Already into the World Championship 1/4 finals he has now had an excellent run in the World Masters event at the same venue. Hill demolished Arfan Dad 8-0 to reach the semi-finals where he will now play Jon Bushnell of Wales.

If the two-time former WEPF World 8-ball Champion could lift both titles in the same week it would be a very unique double never before achieved in the game.

The other two semi-finalists in the Masters are the relatively unknown Gavin Lomax and Thomas Morrow of Northern Ireland, both the World Masters semi-finals start at 16:00 uk time today (5th July).

World Championship Quarter Finals

Defending champion Phil Harrison faces a tough test against a player some people see as a good bet for the title in Adam Davis, he reached the semi-finals last year and will of course have the belief that he can go at least one better.

Craig Waddingham is an interesting player, he has come through all of the rounds so far and is the only qualifier still left in the tournament, he will play former champion Jason Twist.

The other two matches also include former champions in Hill and Potts, both players will expect a tough match against their respective opponents.
