Appleton Misses 14.1 Repeat
February 1st, 2009
Britain’s Darren Appleton, who, over the last 12 months has been in the form of his life, last night missed out on repeating the Straight Pool title he won last year at the Derby City Classic.
His opponent on this occasion, Danny Harriman, is well-known for his 14.1 prowess and took a commanding lead in the race-to-100 match.
Appleton never really got going and eventually capitulated 100-41.
To keep the British theme going Darren also reached the last eight of the 9-ball.
