Single elimination of last 32 players underway in St. Johann
Friday, 01 June 2012: In a very single-sided match, US-Open winner Darren Appleton (GBR) smashed Guilherme Sousa (POR) with 9:0.
The story of the match is quickly told. Sousa made many mistakes and missed some shots while Appleton did not. A huge difference between the two opponents was clearly visible. Sousa seemed to have no chance during the whole match.
Appleton played more focused, stronger and convinced the audience that there would be no other winner but him in that matchup.
