Hossein Vafaei Beaten by Judd Trump at World Grand Prix
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Hossein Vafaei of Iran lost to Judd Trump at the World Grand Prix in Cheltenham Tuesday night.
Ahead of his match, Trump admitted in an interview with ITV Sport that he was not going to be 100%, with his encounter against Vafaei coming just two days after the high of winning the Masters at Alexandra Palace on Sunday.
Trump compiled a brace of century breaks in coming from 2-1 behind to beat the Iranian 4-2 at the Centaur.
“I’m very pleased – probably one of the best performances of my season so far,” Judd Trump told the World Snooker Tour.
“Hossein put me under pressure early on, and I knew I had to play well. I made quite a few good breaks out there, and I’m happy with the win.”
