"I didn't expect that result tonight. There was an air of uneasiness as soon as O'Sullivan started
Smashing the reds up in a huff  "

"He's a 'complex' character isn't he?
If by complex you mean "absolute fucking bellend", then yes!"
Agreed he says some stupid shite but he's still the greatest player to ever to pick a Cue up no argument tbf  |

Oh I agree - he's an absolute genius on the baize. It's just a shame that he's such a fucking prick, all the fucking time. |

I personally think Ronnie can turn it on when he wants to really and sets himself targets to make it harder for himself.
If Ronnie turns up with his A game I can not see anybody beating him but trump. |

At one stage I thought Ronnie was going to steamroll Day but fair play to Day 10-6 down.Ronnie should pick him off but you never know after all last year at the quarterfinals stage Ronnie led Luca Brecel 10-6 only to lose 13-10 |

"Yep was a great clearance and if that double had not gone in he was out,Bingham into the next round and Ronnie cruise it again"
. Ronnie to potential play Judd in the semifinal and John in the final 23 years after they played each other in the final

"I've been watching it but I'm still wondering why they call it the World championships I've only seen one player that was from China?  "
Maybe you should have watched more of it and you wouldn't have missed the other 4. Or the Belgian or the Iranian |

"Some shocks today in the snooker.3 qualifiers into the semi final."
. Yes definitely some shocks fair play to Bingham & Jones.Of the 3 qualifiers Bingham is a former World Champion and Gilbert semifinalist only losing 17-16 to Higgins. I think any of the 4 could win it but I am going to go with Wilson as this is his 3rd World Championship semifinal in 5 years.

I am not really fussed who wins to tell you the truth but hope the standard picks up a bit as not been great, |

My first thought on the final was it could be a hard watch as neither player is the most exciting to watch.However there is something gripping about a two day final where anything can happen and even last night if Jak had won that last frame at 10-7 down overnight he would be right in it but 11-6 with Kyren’s experience in playing in finals I think he will look to share the frames and win 18-11 or 18-12 |

. Ok thanks for that I thought it was all on channel 5. I am back at work on Wednesday so have to make do with the evening session which I believe are best of 5 frames.Jimmy White is normally the man to beat at senior level |

I like Ken Doherty for the seniors but any one can win. |

"Gonna be interesting tomorrow! Judd v Kyren "
. Watching the semifinals yesterday Judd looked very good every time he got in he seemed to win in 1-2 visits.Kyren missed quite a few straightforward balls of their spots.Today is a different day but I fancy Judd to win 9-6. |

They both seem like they are on it. I'm a Kyren fan but I think you might be right |

. Apparently they haven’t always got on so a bit of extra spice to the match.Will probably be a bit of a rivalry over the coming years as the class of 92 are perhaps showing signs of declining although you can never really right them off. |

Yea there was some comments made of their 'friendship' lol but they both handled that well I thought. Not slagging each other off, and other people always will feed off and make worse a rivalry.
It will be an interesting collection of players from the 2002-2010 era that are established and winners that step out from the '92'
The likes of Murphy, Bingham, Hawkins, maguire, carter, Selby, ding, etc they should strive |

. Yes snooker is quite competitive now with regards to who wins a tournament as any of the above you mentioned could win a tournament.One to watch out for in the coming years is Stan Moody.So much for my prediction on Trump winning 9-6 he is 4-0 down at the interval with lots of work to do to
get back into it. |
