Monday's Report:

World number 16 Ian McCulloch was a surprise casualty on the opening day of the UK Championship in York. The Englishman, who reached the last four of this year's World Championship, lost 9-7 to Scotland's Jamie Burnett, who will now take on Paul Hunter.

World number 18 Barry Pinches lost out 9-3 to Welshman Dominic Dale.

There were also victories for Ali Carter and Marco Fu while Gerard Greene advanced after Australian Quinten Hann failed to turn up for their match. No reason has yet been given by Hann for his no-show.

Carter, a quarter-finalist in 2004, trounced Jamie Cope 9-3 and goes forward to face Alan McManus in round two while Fu won 9-6 against Michael Judge and will face former world champion Ken Doherty.

Well done to Ding on a fantastic achievement.
Well done to Steve Davis on an equally good achievement.
It will be interesting to see how Stephen Hendry responds to Davis playing so well at his age.

hendry had a really sh*t two sessions, simply couldn't live with the new an improved Davis :blink:

if ding had played someone who could score heavily when in the balls i dont think he would ve won. but a good prospect and massive talent all the same.

did he miss a middle pocket shot all final?

I've not seen middle pocket play like that since Hendry was at his best.

Not that i have any favourites, but come on Mark Williams.
