Lei Peifan performed well in the opening stages of the match against Yan Bingtao, taking a 2-0 lead with 63 and 94 points. Yan Bingtao's counterattack came later, and he scored a single shot of 75, 66, 59, 81 and 61 points in the 3rd and 6th set, 4-2 to win the match point and eventually win 5-2. Gilbert, trailing 1-2, shot a 3-shot 70+ to win four straight sets and beat Zhao Jianbo 5-2. Liang Wenbo eliminated Hankon 5-2 in a trivial match. Wafi, who had previously kept a clean sheet against O'Sullivan, lost two consecutive sets after a 3-3 draw, losing 3-5 to Higginson.
