Judd Trump will face Kyren Wilson in the Dafabet Masters semi-final after surviving Shaun Murphy’s comeback to win 6-4.
The 28-year-old was 4-2 up before Murphy levelled at 4-4 but breaks of 111 and 113 wrapped the match up for Trump.
He looked like he was cruising at Alexandra Palace on Friday after breaks of 57, 60 and 61.
A break of 91 in the sixth frame moved Trump 4-2 ahead and in pole position to make the last four.
But Murphy hit back with a 95 and drew level at 4-4 before Trump eventually powered through with back-to-back centuries.
