Jack Lisowski believes his impressiver tournament has been down to an important change made to his cue tip.
“I have changed my cue, changed my tip, and got a coach with new ideas so maybe it’s a new version of myself,” he said ahead of the final.
He’d credit mate Giles Martin for the change following his win over Kyren Wilson in the quarter-finals.
“I have been trying for years to find the right one,” Lisowski added.
“I am excited about it, it gets a lot of spin on the white, it’s very accurate and consistent.
“Finding the right tip has has been so frustrating, I have definitely lost matches because of it.
“Giles is the best tip fitter in the world in my opinion so with him I felt we had a chance of getting it right.”
