HAWKERIDGE 18-year-old Ben Harrison stormed back from 2-1 down to dispose of former professional Alfie Burden 5-2 and claim a first-ever tournament win on the English Association of Snooker & Billiards Pro-Ticket Tour. Victory at Cambridge Snooker Centre took Harrison up to third place after two of the four southern section events. "I played really solid all weekend," he said.

"anything for the home," said Zach Miholer, who co-owns the business with wife Darcy.  

The 25-year-old Warrington centre will start in the Gillette Four Nations clash against New Zealand at Huddersfield's Galpharm Stadium, where he first came to the attention of his Wolves and England boss in Huddersfield's academy in 2000.

Matt Wilson lost out in an agonising deciding frame in the semi-finals of the latest Pro-Ticket Tour event in Cambridge last weekend.
