(l-r) Lai Chee Wei and Rory Thor |
Semi Finals was a very brief affair as Rory whiteswashed former Asian champion Sam Chong 4-0 whilst Lai Chee Wei sent off Mohd Reza with a scoreline of 4-2.
Final cued off at 9pm sharp and Rory easily took Frame 1 with a break of 72 points but soon was leveled by Lai at 1-1 after a scrappy frame. Rory immediately bounced back and won 2 frames in a row to regain lead at 3-1, needing only 1 more frame to seal victory. After a 15 minutes break, Lai seemed to be in control in Frame 5 but was denied finally at the end as Rory cleared up to win Frame 5 by 2 points, winning frame and match.
Rory Thor adds another Champion's trophy to his mantelpiece along with cash prize of RM 2,500 whilst Lai pockets RM 1,000 for his effort.
