Gibraltar Open 2019

[Fader]

The Gibraltar Open gets underway tomorrow morning. We have had some qualifying matches already. A lot of the top players have swerved this and no surprise really with Sheffield around the corner and some players are performing at the Champions League also such as Trump, Robbo, Higgins, Selby etc..

I'm going to take a handful of outsiders for the outright as I feel this is wide open as you would expect. 

In the top half, I am going to take Luca Brecel, Wakelin and Sam Craigie. The top half is very weak in my opinion and so a big chance for an unknown to make it through. Brecel would have no excuses at all to not make the final in my opinion.

In the bottom half, I like Lisowski. He is improving each tournament. If he can just get some composure he will be set. I also like the form of Anthony Hamilton and Scott Donaldson to complete 6 fancies.

Not much on Day 1 but one I do like is Baird to beat Jimmy Robertson. Jimmy is currently really struggling with his form and so the last thing he needs is an up and coming player who is playing with confidence.
