Yeah Ronniw tomorrow night, few more games to sort out first though. Bingham will take a lead into the final session tomorrow against Dott.

Big frame this.....

Tense on the pink

Arsenal.... Absolutely... Unfortunately whatever the result Chelske will win the league..

10-5..

Dott needs this to have any chance tomorrow

Terry Griffiths is seriously the best cure for insomnia. Alongside Michael Owen these two could put any man and his dog to sleep.

Nice comments by Selby but just being honest, wasn't allowed to get any sort of foothold in the match as McGill got to grips early in the match and never let go, didn't play badly the better player one and he has taken the defeat in good spirits, the draw has been pretty difficult for him from the off unlike the likes of Ronnie who has had an easier draw giving him a chance to slowly get into the tournament, Bingham playing well but Dott having his chances but playing poorly when it matters, Bingham solid but nothing special some good breaks though, Dott played brilliantly the year he won it and the year he played Robertson and lost apart from the final itself although Robertson played top stuff that year, think those two years apart Dott has been pretty poor pretty much on a par with Maguire at least Dott did have 2 really good years and can say he won it though.

Reanne Evans is taking part in the Q School next month to try and qualify for the main tour next season, good news for the sport.

If Ronnie reaches the final this year he will play every day until the end now!

Higgins looks out of sorts at the moment - that missed black in the opening frame seems to have hurt his confidence badly.

Solid break from Higgins to get back to 11-8

12-8 Ding. Both players have missed a few more balls than expected, but basically Ding has looked the more solid and punished his opponent more heavily than vice-versa.

Would expect Ding to go through now

Yes Ding been the best player all through this match really Higgins has never really reached the heights that won him his last title against Trump, or in previous titles in the past he won, Ding just getting over the line in the end but has had the majority of big breaks during the match 10 breaks over fifty and some over the tonne, while Higgins only 3 or 4 over 50, at his best getting many breaks over 50/100 nowhere near it in this match or in 1st round, 1st session deceived as he was 5-1 up but Ding let him off the hook then as he was in 1st in most of those frames and missed easy shots when amongst balls, Ding always seemed to be the player in 1st during almost every frame and if you are a good break builder such as him its only a matter of time b4 he starts motoring and Higgins gave him too many opportunities to get in 1st, even with a head start with Ding not playing well earlier on couldn't capitalise.

Great win for Ding after he was losing after the first session

Don't like him but watching Alex Ferguson's interview in that "a frame with"
