- Swiss national champion Nicolas Mueller, the World No.22, has become
the second player to withdraw from the forthcoming Allam British Open
due to injury, following World Champion Ramy Ashour’s withdrawal on
Monday.
The 25-year-old has been ruled out due to a knee-injury and his absence
means that Frenchman Gregoire Marche moves into the main draw
automatically from qualification, with Egyptian Mazen Hesham moving up
in the qualification draw to occupy the top seeding.
The 2015 Allam British Open gets underway at the Airco Arena, Hull from
Monday May 11 - Sunday May 17 with tickets available to purchase via
Ticketmaster:
