I'm wondering, has an amateur ever won a ranking event before (I'm including minor ones such as PTCS in this)? I know they've reached finals before, Li Hang AT3 last year and Joe Swail at the PHC last year.

I gotta say, with the draw looking the way it did, I am really disappointed in how Tian Pengfei did. It looked like the perfect way for him to cruise to a final and perhaps a win. It would have been real easy way to secure his main tour spot. This was the best chance he'll ever get. And he didn't cope winning one game.
This was a guy I really believed in, I was certain a few years back he would be Chinas number 2 by now. Now as it is, I'm not even sure he'll be on tour next year.

Holt 47-0 up but lost position, but a mistake by Liáng Wénbó lets him back in

Don't think I've ever seen Holt looking so happy playing, maybe that's his new secret weapon - enjoy playing and results will come ...

Holt takes it with a decent break, not even thrown by someone moving across his line of sight on a tricky red, just got back down and knocked it in.
2-2 in the other match

World Snooker have Lǚ Chēnwĕi spelt Lu Chenwei. So you might think the same family name as 'Lu Ning', but actually the same family name as 'Lyu Haotian' (Chinese recommendation if not using Pinyin tone marks is to spell their surname Lü and to only use Lyu if no umlaut (the mark over the 'u') available on the system being used).
With tone marks, 'Lu Ning' is Lǔ Níng

and Jū Rètí back at the table and knocking balls in like he's an experienced Pro ... certainly the former, soon to be the latter?

Oh dear, so a wild shot from Holt at the beginning of the frame, careless one in the middle and the frame is gone ...

Sadly missed the last 2 frames because a work problem came up ...
But 4 - 1 victory for Jū Rètí who seems to have become a very determined player since losing humiliatingly (in his view) to Mark Williams in 2012 (he was very delighted to get revenge on Williams this year). Seems to have been a strong motivation.

Yeah I really waited for new Chinese players to step up, it's been only Ding a couple of years now so I think it's terrific: first with Xiao Guodong runner up in the Shanghai Masters and now this win for Ju Reti.
Think he'll be a nice addition to the tour next year, hope he'll commit to being a proffesional snooker player now.

This tournament caries 2,000 ranking points for the winner (which coincidentally hasn't been claimed by a pro), alike all other PTC tournaments.
Does this tournament justify that status considering only about a quarter of pros travelled to Zhangjiagang?

But unlike other PTC tournaments, the winner gets £10,000, compared to £20,000 for UK PTC winners and €25,000 (£20,833) for Euro PTC winners.

i think its safe to say Ju Reti is nailed on to have a 2 year Card for the Main Tour 2014/2015 and 2015/2016 seasons.
