Re: Haikou World Open - 10-16 Mar Tournament preview: 1pt ew S.Bingham to win World Open 25/1 Skybet (1/2 1-2) Stuart Bingham went out to China early to acclimatise to conditions in the latest Asian PTC and he acclimatised nicely because he won the tournament. Bingham has been in good nick all season having made the final of the Champion of Champions and the semi final of the UK Championship not to mention the final of the Shootout too so he has plenty of winning momentum behind him and with a tournament win boosting his confidence further Bingham looks a good bet this weekend.
