Ben wins the frame and leads 9-7. Can he hold his nerve here for a famous win?

Ben wins 10-8 only downside is Ronnie has a favourable run to the semi final now. Just have to hope Pang can do a madness in the next round.

Many dangerous players still in that top half. I know Ronnie has done it before with not much match time, but not sure if it will be the same this time around

Think even though Woolaston played some silly shots, he played some decent frames in the match.

Just sense that with a few of the top players looking vulnerable, we could see quite a few more upsets like we’ve seen already.

I don’t think it will be straightforward for any player this time around.
