Former world junior champion Brian Morgan reached his first and only ranking tournament final to date at the 1996 Asian Classic in Bangkok.
Beaten 9-8 by Ronnie O’Sullivan, he at least had the satisfaction of compiling the highest break in both the televised (139) and non-televised (146) stages and gaining a place among the world’s top 32 players.
Victory in the 1996 Benson and Hedges Championship earned Morgan a wild-card entry to the Masters at Wembley.
He reached the second round of the Embassy World Championship in 1994, James Wattana denying him a place in the quarter-finals with a 13-9 victory.
Morgan is part of Geoff Faint’s Wheels In Motion snooker team.
