 Carter clinched victory in a match that went down to the wire
|
Ali Carter clinched a place in the semi-finals of the UK Championship after winning the final frame of his quarter-final match with Mark Williams.
Williams had a chance to set up victory but got a bad contact when he tried to pot an easy red and Carter went on to clear the table and snatch a 9-8 win.
Marco Fu also made it through to the last four after he beat Joe Perry 9-7.
The result gave Hong Kong's Fu revenge for his defeat at the hands of Perry in the second round last year.
The pair were locked at 4-4 after the first session but Fu made four half-century breaks in five frames after the interval to pull ahead.
Perry fought back and trailed by only one frame at 8-7 but Fu closed out the match at the next opportunity.
