Fu undergoes eye surgery

Veteran Marco Fu has announced that he will be taking a break from competitions “for the coming months” after being diagnosed with retinal degeneration in his left eye. Writing on his social media accounts followed by tens of thousands of fans, the 40-year-old Chinese Hong Kong snooker star — ranked world No. 9 — said his doctor advised him to “rest to avoid retinal detachment” but told them not to worry. Fu also revealed he had undergone laser eye surgery as he read out his message in a video, where he sported a pair of sunglasses. The break coincided with a personal milestone, said Fu. “2018 is an important year for me personally as this is my 20th anniversary as a pro snooker player,” the veteran cueist wrote.
