After all, he was the winner of the domestic circuit's order of merit last year and is the backmarker in the field here, with a handicap of +4.6.
He may be unseeded but White remained unbowed last night as he opened his title challenge with a convincing 6 and 4 victory over Neil Henderson in the first round.
