Neil Robertson's Unique Shot Fail at the English Open: How It Happened.

According to The Sun: On Wednesday, Neil Robertson found himself in a comical situation during his match at the English Open against Jackson Page.

The Australian snooker player was competing in the 32nd round when the score was 1-1 and attempted to pot the black ball.

Robertson hoped the ball would rebound and break the remaining red balls on the table. He successfully potted the black ball into the corner pocket, but the outcome was completely unexpected.

The ball seemed to pass through a dense cluster of reds and got stuck behind the green ball at the other end of the table.

The commentator was puzzled watching what happened. He remarked:

“It seems he passed through a hole that wasn’t there.”

Slow-motion replay showed that after contact, the spin of the white ball caused it to move sharply as if it had a mind of its own.

The ball ended up behind the green, leaving Robertson with very few options. He couldn’t find a comfortable angle and had to choose among just a few red balls to continue the game.

This episodic mishap illustrates a tough day for the Australian, as world number 34 Jackson Page ultimately won 4-1.

So, the 43-year-old Robertson may not have imagined that his title defense in Brentwood would go this way, especially after his recent trip to Melbourne for an award – the Order Medal.

Despite all attempts to improve his game, including advice from legendary Ronnie O'Sullivan and working with a new team, this time it didn’t culminate in success. However, for the Australian player, the year has still proven to be quite successful.
