BASILDON'S snooker professional Stuart Bingham has been given an Oriental chance of gaining revenge over former world champion John Higgins.

The Scot is the only player to have beaten the new towner so far in what has been a sparkling best ever start to a season for 29-year-old Bingham.

That victory was at the quarter final stage of the Grand Prix at Preston and Higgins went on to collect the title.

Now the two will meet again in March when the main stages of the China Open get underway.
