Wilson, the second seed in the German captain, twice came from behind to beat China's Zhou, who led by two frames in the opening exchanges. Zhou, the 31st seed, eked his nose ahead once more as he nicked the fifth, but Wilson fought back. Wilson will face 18th seed Jak Jones next, the man he beat in last year's World Snooker Championship final.
