As no one expecting , Ding Junhui , Ronnnie O`Sullivan , Steve Davis and John Higgins are out before the quarter finals of Malta cup. Hendry takes the greatest chance between he and Doherty or Ebdon to win the Malta cup . As the Malta cup doesn`t stop to surprise us we can see Hendry, Ebdon or Doherty out to see a cup just between young talents.

Surprisingly, O`Sullivan lost the eighth in front of world number 21, Micheal Holt.
