Snooker star Stephen Maguire appeared to eat something off the baize during his quarter-final match against David Gilbert.<br/><br/>The bizarre incident happened in the 19th frame with the Scotsman trailing his rival by 11-8 at the World Snooker Championship at the Crucible in Sheffield.<br/><br/>Maguire looked at the table after playing a shot and seemed to pick something off it, before proceeding to eat it and carrying on with the match seemingly unperturbed.<br/><br/>And the Glaswegian subsequently revealed he'd eaten a fly.<br/><br/>'It was just a fly. I spat it out when nobody was looking,' he told Metro Sport. <br/><br/>The strange interlude did not help his quest to reach the semi-final of the world championship as he crashed out 13-8 against Gilbert, who will face either Kyren Wilson or John Higgins in the semi-finals.<br/><br/>It is not the first time in this tournament that Maguire has made the headlines for his behavior at the baize.<br/><br/>Earlier on Wednesday, the Scotsman punched the table after playing a poor positional shot against Gilbert.<br/><br/>As he moved around the table looking to work out his next shot, Maguire punched the baize in frustration before walking back to his chair.<br/><br/>'He can't disguise his annoyance, his anger,' said Eurosport commentator Phil Yates.<br/><br/>'Why does he do it? One of these days he'll regret it in a major way. Yes, show frustration, but not like that.<br/><br/>'I like Maguire's passion, I just don't want to see him hurt himself.'
