The Northern Ireland Open has certainly not lacked in quality and drama in its opening stages.
Ronnie O’Sullivan was at his fluent finest as he smashed three centuries en route to a convincing win over Soheil Vahedi - The Rocket winning 4-0 in less than 45 minutes.
Elsewhere, world number one Mark Selby negotiated the tricky Anthony Hamilton 4-1 to set up a tie against Jimmy Robertson.
Judd Trump’s 4-2 win over Matthew Selt lines up a second-round clash with Stuart Carrington, while Neil Robertson survived a major scare against Ben Woollaston, the Australian coming back from 3-1 down to win 4-3.
