Gloucester's Rob Milkins
GLOUCESTER'S Rob Milkins faces a tough task to get through to the second round of the Coral Welsh Open in Cardiff on Tuesday afternoon.
Milkins, ranked 32 in the world, faces 29-year-old Chinese ace Yu Delu over the best of seven frames.
Meanwhile, Bristol's world number three Judd Trump will be looking to bounce back from his early exit from the World Grand Prix last week, where he lost to eventual champion Barry Hawkins, tonight.
Trump, who made a 145 break in the Grand Prix, is playing 2007 Welsh Open runner-up Andrew Higginson.
The brutal format of the event means that whoever goes out in the first round, currently underway in Cardiff, will leave without any prize or appearance money.
