The Gdynia Open, running from February 7 to 9, 2014 in Gdynia, Poland is was very important to many players fighting for their survival on the tour. Neil Robertson was bidding for the trophy for the third time in a row. On day 1, Judd was the only Grove player to qualify for the final day. He was joined on day 2 by … Anda. Neil ’s defence came to an end at the hands of Alan McManus in last 64. Both Anda and Judd fell in the quarters.

Judd Trump 4-0 Chris Wakelin
66-22, 105(105)-0, 79(79)-7, 75(75)-11
Judd looked very strong except maybe n the long potting department, but fair to say Chris didn’t put him under pressure at all.

Dominic Dale 4-1 Liang Wenbo

This was actually a very good match to watch. Neil missed the 15th red for a maximum in frame 5. Alan’s tactical nous is good as ever and a very positive attitude in the decider was key to his victory. Shame for Neil who sees his defence come to an early end.

Mark Joyce 1-4 Zhang Anda
4-78, 72-34, 32-82, 7-66(66), 4-84(84)
And another good win for Anda.

Judd is through to the final day, but Steve Davis gave him a stern test. The veteran Legend still has it, as he showed with a great 137, the only century of the match.

David Gilbert 3-4 Zhang Anda
69-47, 65-73, 26-79, 71-18, 57-42, 50-79(60), 8-65
And yet another very good win for Anda! And how close that was!
