Three-time champion Mark Williams produced a classy display to beat Jimmy Robertson 10-5 in the first round of the World Championship.
Trailing 5-4 overnight, the Welshman compiled four half centuries as he reeled off six frames in a row to seal his victory.
It was a tough afternoon for England's Robertson, who struggled to find any rhythm.
Williams will face Belgium's Luca Brecel in the second round.
Their best-of-25 contest at the Crucible starts at 10:00 BST on Friday.
