The volatile Irishman has been reported to the WPBSA for hurling a tirade of abuse at two officials and pressmen after his 5-2 defeat to Joe Johnson. Higgins allegedly threatened one reporter with a glass ashtray, then grabbed another by the throat. He later dismissed this as a "playful tug". He is also said to have shouted at WPBSA officials that the Association were "the locusts of the earth". >>>>> Scores — 136 Next Rjport In Brief Football TV Guide

The 47-year-old Welshman made six breaks of over 30 but said: "If I had been playing somebody on his game I would have been punished". Alain Robidoux, a semi-finalist last year, booked a fifth round meeting with Danny Fowler when he beat Irishman Eugene Hughes 5-1. The 29-year-old French-Canadian made a break of 70 in the first frame and dealt Hughes a killer blow by sinking the black to go 4-1 up. >>>>> Scores — 136 Next Report In Brief Football TV Guide
