Wuhan Open: Judd Trump beats Ali Carter to follow up English Open triumph

The 34-year-old made it back-to-back ranking titles following his English Open victory last week.

Trump raced into a 4-1 lead but fellow Englishman Carter reeled off four frames to edge ahead.

But the first century of the match enabled Trump to move level and he wrapped up the victory with a break of 105.

Trump said on Eurosport: “It was a very tough final, Ali made it very difficult, even though he didn’t play his best.

“I struggled a little bit, but towards the end I just had a few good splits and I just scored heavier, and that was the difference.”
