Zak Surety's recent form

Zak Surety is looking to get redemption following a loss in his last match against fellow compatriot Joe O`Connor, which ended in a 3-0 victory. Before this loss, He recorded four straight victories, which were against Wales A. Pagett by a score margin of 3-1, L. Pullen by a score margin of 3-0, Chinese Z. Hanyang by a score margin of 4-2, and C. Gong by a score margin of 5-1. John Higgins battles through to make his 57th ranking event final. He defeats first-time semi-finalist Zak Surety 6-5 in a decider. As he so often does, the Scotsman took advantage of Surety’s mistakes to take the final 3 frames and progress. Ding Junhui survives a scare to progress 10-7 over debutant Zak Surety. Impressively, Surety made 4 centuries (136, 110, 109 & 104) throughout the match to pressure the former finalist. Ding played his best stuff at the back end of the match to get over the winning line. He eliminates the 9th seed of the qualifiers, Jack Lisowski, to move on to Judgement Day. He played against Scot Donaldson in the Wuhan Open, and he easily dispatched him. In the meantime, Surety took on Sanderson Lam in the China World Grand Prix in a prior game and secured a 2-5 win. Looking at the Englishman's previous games, Zak Surety has three wins accumulated while losing to Si Jiahui and Peter Lines in other encounters.

Zak Surety Strength

Throughout the qualifiers, Surety was a standout performer, defeating Ricky Walden, Jack Lisowski, and Antoni Kowalski to book his place at the 'Home of Snooker' for the first time. Since he turned professional in 2014, there has been little to celebrate for the Englishman, but he did make the Semi-Final of the World Open this season, only to be edged out by John Higgins in a decider. That form shown in Yushan is a sign that he is more than capable of making a deep run when all aspects of his game click.

Fergal Quinn recent form

Quinn F. had a mix of results in his recent matches. On 5 September 2025, he won 4-3 against McGuigan R. in the NIO. On 1 September 2025, he lost 5-1 to Williams R. in the Grand Prix. Earlier, on 9 August 2025, Quinn lost 4-2 to Jones Jam. but won 4-2 against El Hareedy M. on the same day in the SAM event.

Fergal Quinn Strength

No doubt, Fergal Quinn has had some excellent performances but I just do not see him winning this game. Looking at the players his wins have come against, he will have to do better after failing his test against Iuliam Boiko, who seemed to be his toughest opponent and lost. Ahead of this game, Fergal Quinn has, however, defeated Andy Dirven, Dylan Emery, Paul Deaville, and Simon Bedford.
