ROUND TWO HUNDRED AND THIRTY THREE

Who is the only player to have won two ranking tournaments just seven days apart and which events were they?

[frameandfortunereturns]

I will guess at Mark Williams? 2002 Thailand and China Opens?

[Cyril]

I'll take at punt at the 2002 China Open, and 2002 Thailand Masters, both won by Mark Williams.

[dantuck_7]

Looks like a photo-finish here!

[Cyril]

I will guess at Mark Williams? 2002 Thailand and China Opens?

Good Shot!!!

I'll take the precaution of a back up plan:

Hendry, in 1990, Asian & Dubai!

[frameandfortunereturns]

That was crazy!! Fastest finger as they say in the wild west!! Maybe it was wrong anyway?

[Cyril]

Yeah, the question sat there since 7.16pm !! Haha

It could be something else, where the pre-televised stages of the next event almost started before the last had finished.

[frameandfortunereturns]

That is very strange! I am surprised it hasn't happened more than once(the 7 day gap that is)!

[Alex0paul]

Congratlations frameandfortunereturns (just) it was indeed Mark J Williams in winning the China Open and Thailand Masters.

ROUND TWO HUNDRED AND THIRTY-FOUR

[The Statman]

ROUND TWO HUNDRED AND THIRTY-FOUR

What is unusual about Dene O'Kane's playing record at the Crucible?

[Cyril]

Despite 6 appearances (inc 2 quarter finals), he never appeared 2 years consecutively.

[janverhaas]

He never lost in the 2nd round?

[The Statman]

Congratlations Cyril. It is indeed the case that Dene O'Kane has made six appearances at the Crucible, but has never appeared two years running.

You are no longer sandwiched between Paul and me!
