Neil Robertson claims World Championship exit ‘really unfair’ but shows class
Neil Robertson has dubbed his early exit from the World Championship as “unfair” following his defeat to Chris Wakelin on Sunday night. Robertson, a former Crucible winner, had performed a stunning comeback to level the tie at 7-7, having trailed 7-2 following the first session of the match.
Despite winning five frames on the bounce to draw level, Robertson won just one of the final four, with Wakelin scoring the desired three extra frames to reach the second round. It is more disappointment for the Aussie, who did not play at the Crucible whatsoever last year after failing to qualify. He has not reached round two for four years.
