LIVERPOOL’S Rod Lawler had plenty to smile about yesterday as he cruised into the second round of qualifying for this season’s SAGA Insurance Masters.
The former International Open runner-up whitewashed Essex cueman Jimmy Robertson in the first round at the English Institute of Sport in Sheffield.
“I played really well. As soon as I got the first frame under my belt, I felt comfortable,” said Lawler, who now locks horns with Belfast prospect Mark Allen tomorrow morning.
Widnes’s Andrew Higginson joined Lawler in the second round with a 4-1 victory over Joe Jogia.
