Hammad Miah was relegated from the World Snooker Tour at the end of last season, but he started his bid to regain his professional status perfectly, with a 4-0 win over Luke Garland.

Mitchell Mann, who also fell off of the tour last season, didn’t fare so well, losing out 4-3 to Michael Judge.

Former US Open nine-ball champion Corey Deuel suffered a 4-1 defeat at the hands of Haydon Pinhey.
