Tournament summary

[edit]
  • Ronnie O'Sullivan withdrew from the event due to back problems that prevented him from travelling or playing.[1]
  • Matthew Stevens went 0–4 down to Stephen Maguire, but took the next 5 frames to win 5–4.
  • Dominic Dale won 8 consecutive frames in the final, claiming victory from trailing 2–6. He also dyed his hair blonde halfway through the tournament because he saw the style in a barbershop in Shanghai.
