Match Report

In the first frame he established a 30 point lead early on and held onto it right to the end.

In the second frame Joe had a 28 point lead with 35 on.  However Nav pinched it with a great 34 clearance.

In the last frame Joe had a 20 point lead with the last red on Nav had a good go at making another steal, landing slightly awkward with the green on its spot, which made it very hard to get on the brown near the black cushion. Nav narrowly missed getting on the brown and laid a good snooker instead. Joe escaped that and a few shots later sealed the frame and match.
