Judd Trump fought back to lead David Gilbert 5-3 in their last-16 clash at the Betfred World Snooker Championship.
Gilbert was the quickest player out of the blocks as he fired two centuries to take a two-frame advantage over Trump into the interval of the best-of-25 encounter.
But the world number one responded by winning four frames in a row, ending the opening session with his second century break, and moving 5-3 clear in his bid to reach the quarter-finals.
