Judd Trump completed back-to-back tournament wins with a 10-7 victory over fellow Englishman Ali Carter in the final of the Wuhan Open.
He had to play two matches on Wednesday to catch up, but maintained his form to seal the £140,000 winner’s prize.
The Masters champion went into the evening session trailing 5-4 but hit two centuries to turn it around.
Carter, 44, was aiming for his second title of the year after winning the German Masters in February, and did well to halt Trump’s early charge, battling back from 4-1 down to lead after the first session.
But 2019 world champion Trump levelled the match with a break of 116 and opened a two-frame cushion with further runs of 56 and 71.
The two players shared the next four frames before Trump sealed his 25th ranking title with a break of 105.
“It was a very tough final,” Trump told Eurosport. “Ali made it very difficult, even though he didn’t play his best.
“I struggled a little bit, but towards the end I just had a few good splits and scored heavier – that was the difference.”
As well as finishing runner-up, Carter also took home a £5,000 prize for the tournament’s highest break of 145.
