Winning in fine fashion

Luca Brecel won his opening match of the Shanghai Masters despite playing in borrowed clothes after picking up the wrong bag at the airport. The Belgian did not realise his mistake until he opened the case ahead of his first-round meeting with Matthew Stevens. Brecel wore shoes he found in the stranger’s bag but had to borrow clothes from the tournament director and his fellow player Michael White. It did not put the 22-yearold off, though, and he won 5-0 to set up a second-round match with Jamie Jones. Judd Trump, John Higgins and Mark Selby were all winners yesterday.
