Gary Wilson dumped out of Northern Ireland Open by teenager Stan Moody

Seventeen-year-old Stan Moody beat world number 18 Wilson 4-2 to reach the last 16 of the tournament.

Moody produced breaks of 63 and 61 en route to a third consecutive win, booking a match against Yuan Sijun on Thursday.

He told the World Snooker Tour’s official website: “Out on the TV stage, to get over the line I was very pleased.

“I missed a chance at 3-1 but then I regrouped and won the next frame. I made silly mistakes during the match so I need to improve. I am learning loads from being here and just trying to enjoy it.

“It was frustrating for me losing matches before this tournament, but I am viewing my first two years as an apprenticeship and accepting whatever happens.

“I had felt for a while that I was going to start winning matches because I have been playing well in practice and working with my coach.

“A few months ago I would have lost this match 4-3 because my head would have gone after missing the chance at 3-1, but today I stayed calm.”

World number nine Mark Williams crashed out to Robbie Williams 4-2.

Jack Lisowski cruised to a 4-1 victory over Matthew Selt and Shaun Murphy did not drop a single frame when he dismantled Sean O’Sullivan 4-0.

Ricky Walden knocked out Stuart Bingham 4-1.
