Mark Allen backed to win World Championship in future by expert - ‘I honestly believe he’s got it in him’
Mark Allen has been backed to win the World Snooker Championship one day by Eurosport’s David Hendon. Allen put on a classy performance to beat Chang Bingyu 4-1 in his first defence of the Northern Ireland Open on Sunday night, picking up where he left off after reaching the final of the British Open earlier this month. Ad Having lost five stone in four months, Allen – who is a former Crucible semi-finalist — is looking fresh for the new season, and Hendon believes this could be a turning point in his career.
