Barry Hawkins stormed into the quarter-finals of Masters 2023.

Barry Hawkins displayed a sensational performance and secured his spot in the quarter-finals of Masters 2023 after smashing out UK champion Mark Allen.

Barry Hawkins has claimed clean sweep 6-0 victory over the UK champion Mark Allen at Alexandra Palace, London.

Twice a beaten finalist including in last year's renewal, Hawkins' record in the Masters is a strong one and backed by the London crowd, he proved far too good for a frustrated opponent.

Neil Robertson, John Higgins and Mark Selby have already been knocked out, and Allen now joins them after his heavy defeat at the hands of an impressive Hawkins.

In the next round, Barry Hawkins will face either Judd Trump or Ryan Day next on Friday.
