Neil Robertson has shown he's back as a major snooker force as Australia's master cueman whitewashed England's Stuart Bingham 10-0 to win the World Grand Prix final in Hong Kong.
The 43-year-old Melburnian lifted his 25th ranking title, stretching back over two decades of excellence, after his resurgent form, courtesy of an equipment change, blew away his fellow ex-world champ Bingham, who missed a series of chances in the Kai Tak Arena.
It not only left Robertson to pick up a huge Stg 180,000 ($A369,000) winner's prize but also practically guaranteed his place in next month's world championships at Sheffield's Crucible Theatre.
