This quarter-final match sees Alex take on seven times world billiard champion and WPBSA chairman Rex Williams.Williams, an able and compentent snooker player from the 1950\'s onward,enjoyed a surge of form during the mid-late 1980\'s.He reached numerous quarter-finals,a couple of semi-finals and,on one occasion,the final of the 1986 Rothmans Grand Prix, in which he lost 10-6 to Jimmy White.(Rex\'s semi-final against Neal Foulds was an absolute cracker:the veteran won 9-8.)Williams re-entered the top 16 from 1986-1988 on the strength of these consistent results.We join the action from frame 2 with Rex having taken the opening frame as described by David Icke.
