Duffy secures Hunter Scholarship
Sheffield's Adam Duffy has become the new recipient of the Paul Hunter Scholarship award.
The scholarship, set up in tribute to the three-time Masters winner who died in 2006, allows a promising player to train at the World Snooker Academy.
"Paul was an inspiration to me," said Duffy, who was handed the award by Cliff Thorburn.
Thorburn also received a silver salver commemorating the first 147 maximum at The Crucible, which he made in 1983.
