It comes a week after Cahill was knocked out of the BetVictor Scottish Open with defeat against Luca Brecel in Edinburgh.

The tournament was won by Gary Wilson, who defended his title with a 9-5 defeat of Noppon Saengkham.

​The 38-year-old surged into a 6-2 lead at the end of the opening session of the final then withstood a brief comeback by the Thai to seal his second ranking crown.

It capped a remarkable campaign for Wilson, who was forced to win three consecutive final frame deciders in the early stages of the tournament.
