Judd Trump wins CBSA Tour event

Judd Trump won the CBSA Tour event in China with a 5-1 victory over John Higgins on Saturday.

The Englishman secured his first piece of silverware of the 2023/24 snooker season with a resounding triumph against the Scot.

Earlier in the day, Trump overcame Kyren Wilson in a tight semi-final encounter that lasted the full seven frames and went to a decider.

It was the only time the 33 year-old was troubled throughout the week as he generally dominated his opponents in Guizhou province.

Trump earns 200,000 CNY from the tournament’s prize fund, which converts to about £22,000.

Sanctioned by the Chinese Billiards and Snooker Association, the CBSA Tour event near the famous Huangguoshu Waterfall featured a 64-strong field.

Eight high-profile international stars including Trump and Higgins were invited to take part in addition to the highest ranked Chinese amateurs, a selection of the country’s pros, and other qualified players.

Higgins, who compiled the highest break of the week with a 143 contribution, had reached the title decider with a 4-0 defeat of Yuan Sijun in the semi-finals.

Trump’s next outing on the World Snooker Tour, meanwhile, will be later in August when the European Masters takes place in Nuremberg.
