Playing out of group 6A+8 this morning @ 10am at this year's World Disability Billiards and Snooker in Korat, Thailand was Fran Coyle who faced his fellow Group 8 player and defending champion Kristof De Bruyn.

They played their match on table No.1. After an early power failure.. play resumed soon after and it was a safety duel that both players contested.

This was the pattern of the match and later on Kristof took the 1st frame. Into the 2nd and this frame followed a similar pattern. The frame was there for the taking from both players up to the colours with players spuring chances !

In the end the defending champion potted frame winning brown ball and while he gave Fran a possibility of gaining a snooker that he needed, it never materialised. In the 3rd frame Kristof began to move up a gear and soon after secured the match winning it 3-0.
Fran plays his final group match later this afternoon.
