Red Shift - or Red Herring? Producer PIETER MORPURGO
The Rothmans Grand Prix With a quarter of a million pounds at stake and valuable ranking points to be won, the Grand Prix is established as one of the most valuable and important championships.
With all matches best-of-nine frames - up to the semi-finals - it is also one of the most unpredictable events, as ten seeded players found out in the qualifiers. Four of the remaining 32 play today. All four have yet to fulfil their individual promise, and the forecast of their fellow professionals a few seasons ago. Tony Meo , who has won World Doubles and Team titles, plays Eugene Hughes and Joe Johnson plays Mike Hallett.
