Ime: Mark Williams has decided to pull out of the Royal London Watches Grand Prix because of a wrist injury.
The two-times World Champion sprained ligaments in his left wrist during a gym session ten days ago.
He battled through the pain in his first three matches, losing to Stuart Bingham and Robin Hull and beating Stephen Lee.
He made the decision to withdraw after a 3-1 defeat to Finland's Hull tonight.
"My wrist is hurting and I can't play properly," said the 31-year-old Welshman. "I don't want to make it worse so I've decided to pull out and rest it before the next tournament.
"Every time I play a shot with pace I get a lot of pain. If I'd carried on I don't think I could win another frame and I don't want to risk making it worse.
"I've never pulled out of a tournament before and it's not nice. Even if I'd won tonight my decision would have been the same. Maybe I should never have come here. I decided to give it a try but it was no good."
Williams' three results in the group will be declared void.World Snooker |
