HK snooker star Ng On-yee wins first two matches in bid to join men’s pro tour

Hong Kong’s former women’s world snooker champion Ng On-yee continued her bid to win a ticket to the men’s professional tour when she trounced her second-round opponent 4-0 at the World Qualifying School tournament.

It's the first time she has beaten male players.

Eight two-year tickets to the pro tour are up for grabs in two separate competitions – Event 1 and Event 2 – in Burton, England.

Ng – who relinquished her world title last month in the final against rival Reanne Evans – cruised past Hassan Miah 4-0 in her second match in Event 1.
