Mark Allen sailed into the quarterfinals of the World Snooker Championship 2023.

Northern Ireland's snooker sensation, Mark Allen comfortably stormed into the quarterfinals of the ongoing Cazoo World Snooker Championship 2023 after a dominating 13-4 second-round victory over Stuart Bingham.

The 37-year-old, Allen required just 15 minutes to fashion a break of 68 and turn a 12-4 overnight lead into a 13-4 win against the 2015 champion Stuart Bingham, setting up a last-eight clash with either Neil Robertson or Jak Jones. 

Allen, who is intent on rectifying a dismal Crucible record that has seen him reach this stage just four times since a solitary semi-final appearance in 2009.

World No3 Allen has been the player of the season – winning three major titles including the UK Championship as well as reaching another final.
