SNOOKER star Louis Heathcote pulled off the 'escape of the season' to help him qualify for the English Open.<\/strong><\/p>\n

With the match tied at 1-1 Heathcote's opponent Thor Chuan snookered him brilliantly.<\/p>\n

The Malaysian positioned the cue ball on the top cushion right next to the brown ball, with the last red on the table on the other side of the brown.<\/p>\n

But a moment of genius from Heathcote allowed him to wriggle out of the situation before taking the frame and the match 4-1.<\/p>\n

Brit star Heathcote, 26, hit the bottom cushion at the perfect angle so that it then came off the left cushion and into the red.<\/p>\n

He played the shot so perfectly he covered one pocket with the brown and left the red in a safe position.<\/p>\n

And another commented: "Take a bow."<\/p>\n

It took two attempts for Heathcote to get out of the snooker, and he admitted he felt despair after failing with his first shot.<\/p>\n

He said: "I felt like crying when he said 'foul and a miss'."<\/p>\n

It is not the first time Heathcote has managed to pull off an outrageous escape either.<\/p>\n

In April 2023 he managed to not only hit but pot a yellow when stuck behind the black ball, much to the amazement of viewers.<\/p>\n
