Snooker

[Mel Evo]

Only the third one I've ever seen live, absolutely stunning. I don't think there's a more impressive individual achievement in sport, but to do it on that stage is just unbelievable

Never looked in doubt either, brilliant.

 

[Tony Towner]

I assume there has been a 147 rather than Del has seen his 3rd ginger?

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Luca should win this now. Was around 50/1 pre-tournament and had never won a match at The Crucible on any of his previous visits. Didn't even qualify in 2020 or 2021.

I can't stand Selby so I'm pleased.

 

[Del Woppio]

Not so clear cut now unfortunately, Luca in a possible #headsgone sitch, and Selby doing Selby things

 

[Mel Evo]

Snooker at this level is such a great sport.

 

[Del Woppio]

Not so clear cut now unfortunately, Luca in a possible #headsgone sitch, and Selby doing Selby things

Obviously since I said that, Selby's missed a couple of sitters.

I'm pretty sure that the worst that can happen to a sportsman is that I say something complimentary about them

 

[darlowolf64]

Finish with a ton lad!

 

[Del Woppio]

He's been great to watch through this tournament, sensational.

 

[jlo]

He's been superb, glad Selby made a game out of it but that was something else from Brecel

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Liang Wenbo and Li Hang banned for life.

Yan Bingtao banned until December 2027 (he'll still only be 27, but will have to start from the bottom - he was top 10 a couple of years ago).

Zhao Xintong gone until next September. He's been top 6 recently.

The rest are nobodies really.

Stupid, the lot of them.

147 for Ding at the Masters

Was 4-0 down to Ronnie, should have gone 5-0 but Ronnie missed the simplest of reds for frame ball, now 4-3

 

[The Bear]

Just watched it. Great break. That last yellow was tough.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Ding now has 50% of Masters 147s ever!

(Kirk Stevens and Marco Fu have one each and that's it)

 

[The Bear]

I'd love to see someone play in a white suit nowadays like Kirk did.

 

[Carrotdude]

Ronnie’s decided that was enough of that and came straight back with a 127 haha

 

[Tony Towner]

I'd love to see someone play in a white suit nowadays like Kirk did.

It was to hide the powder spills

 

[Del Woppio]

In for a cracking finish here, been a fantastic match

 

[The Bear]

Lit has. Brilliant snooker from both, but when Ronnie gets in his rhythm he's frightening.

 

[Del Woppio]

Carter's missed some bug chances in the last 6-7 frames, he'll be really disappointed with that

 

[Del Woppio]

Ooof he's back at the table

Oof and now he's down again
