China's 14-year-old Yan Bingtao beat title favourite Pankaj Advani 6-4 to storm into the men's semi-finals at the IBSF World Snooker Championships at Bangaluru today. The 29-year-old Advani, who came into the tournament as holder of 12 World titles and a hot favourite, virtually gifted the match to the Chinese prodigy who bounced back after trailing 0-2 with a break of 107 in the third frame and went on to win a tight match.
