Rhee Leads Going into Second Break

There have been two recent eliminations with Sathesh Muthu unable to recover from his horrible start and the Singaporean player departed at the hands of Russia’s Timofey Asmolov shortly before the break. Muthu was followed to the rail not long afterward by Ken Okada, with Monsour Matloubi doing the honours there.

Here’s how the rest of the field is stacking up:
