KYREN WILSON jokes he has had his "Britney Spears moment" after a close shave with the barbers back home. The Warrior flew out to Berlin for this week’s German Masters after getting a buzz cut off his barber in Northamptonshire. In his mind, it brought back memories of the American pop singer shaving off her long blonde hair in 2007 in an unexpected act of rebellion and liberation from the perils of fame and attention.

The world No.2 – who won a maiden world title last May with blond highlights – laughed: “I’ve had a Britney Spears moment!. “I had the blond hair, then I dyed it back. It was all mismatched. Just the length of my hair, it’s a nightmare. “I’m having to have my haircut once a week. I think the positives to take from this is I have got a good hair line.

“I just said to my barber: ‘Let’s just start again.’ So we did a buzz cut, the same level all over, My hair will be back in a week-and-a-half, don’t worry about that.”. Wilson, 33, had a hair-raising moment on Wednesday when he fell 2-0 down to China’s Zhou Yuelong, the guy who smashed him 6-0 at the Shanghai Masters last July.

But the Englishman rallied back to win 5-3, sealing the victory with a 100 that involved a no-look hit on the final black. In the Last 16, Wilson now faces Jak Jones, the person he beat over two days in the World Snooker Championship final at the Crucible.
