Binnie, a nine-time Caribbean champion, defeated Ghana’s Evans Ayih, 11-1, 11-1, 11-3, to register a 3-0 victory.
Jamaica’s other participant, Julian Morrison, who started off his campaign on the losing end was ousted from the competition after going down 5-11, 4-11, 3-11 (0-3) to Pakistan’s Nasir Iqbal in Round-of-64 action.
