 Kyren Wilson begins the defence of his European Masters title on Tuesday and is glad to be at full strength again after an unusual early-season injury. The Warrior played at the Championship League earlier this summer and had something of a limp around the table, along with an impressive tan. It didn't seem to be hampering him as he won all three of his games in his first group stage and two of three in the second group, something he was very pleased with. 'It was nice because I'd just got back from a stag do three days before, so I was pleased with how I performed,' Wilson told Metro.co.uk. 'I should have had a max [missing the final pink]. I just missed out on the final group, but they're four-frame matches, they can go either way. A slice of luck can end the match, so I wasn't too hard on myself. I was quite pleased with how I played considering how rusty I felt.' A notable limp a few days after a stag do suggests there could be an interesting story to tell, and Kyren has done just that. 'Yeah…I got a little bit worse for wear on the Albufeira strip and a policeman kindly treated my leg to his baton!' Wilson explained. 'So I had a bit of a limp, it was sore for a few days. It was just a bit of a misunderstanding, but it is one to remember. 'I was very much worse for wear, as you're supposed to be on a stag do. I was best man as well so it was my job to make sure the groom was well intoxicated. 'There was a bit of a dispute over a kebab, one of my friends was over charged, which we weren't happy about. The police came and before I said a word he wrapped his baton round my leg! All good now though.'
