Robertson trounces sorry Williams
Robertson dominated the two-time world champion
Australian Neil Robertson completed a 6-0 whitewash of Wales' two-time world champion Mark Williams in the first round of the Masters at Wembley.
Robertson, 24, made three century breaks and three more half centuries to earn a last-eight clash with either John Higgins or Stephen Maguire.
"That was probably the best I've ever played," said Robertson.
"But my preparation for the match was bad. At 10.45 I was running to the venue in my (playing) shoes."
Robertson, the provisional world number 11, added: "I was up at 0920, which is early for me, but I left a few things behind and had to wait for my friends to bring them to me. I only got eight minutes practice in because I was late."
Despite his lack of preparation, Robertson, the Royal London Watches Grand Prix winner, compiled breaks of 108, 101 and 116 as well as 86, 58 and 89.

Looks like the Beeb made a major booboo. They took the final frame scores and assumed that he made those scores in one visit every time. So while Neil made some impressive breaks, 57, 86, 78, 102 and 88, 4 match winning breaks, including one century, it's not as divine as the BBC made it out to be.
