LONDON - China's Cao Yupeng made the first maximum break of his career at the Scottish Open in Glasgow on Tuesday.
Cao, 27, scored 147 points in the third frame of his clash with Andrew Higginson and took a 3-0 lead. It leaves the world number 67 in line for a potential payout of 20,000 pounds from the rolling 147 prize and an additional 2,000 pounds for the high break this week.

He went on to beat the 40-year-old Englishman 4-0 to reach the second round.
