I think Judd told Hendry he wouldnt swap his mickey mouse titles (at least in terms of prestige) in a season for the World Title, thought it was a bizarre answer but thats just me.

was that just after the match? Seems a knee-jerk answer rather than a considered one

I reckon I could beat Wilson or Higgins the way they are playing in this frame

that is strange then. Maybe he is looking for that consistency in a season, but surely you would take the world title every year

Yeah that was his reasoning to be fair.

Higgins a bit fortunate there - he didn't look comfortable at all in trying to make that 2 reds left clearance, but Wilson misses difficult long black. Both players seem to have gone off the boil a bit

Should ask him again in 3 years if he is still waiting for a second world title.............

Wow, Kyren blew a golden chance to go 10-5 ahead. It wasn’t just the missed plant, how he ended up taking on the yellow and was so far away from the plant, I will never know.

Both players seem to be seeing who can miss the most in these last couple of frames

This is terrible snooker…

They keep saying that the pockets are playing a little tighter, but the overall standard this year hasn't felt that great. Usually you see various players put in a great session, but any one-sided sessions seem to have been more down to the other player being rubbish rather than a great display by the other. The Ding - Lisowski match was of a pretty good standard, but most of the other matches haven't felt that memorable standard wise.
There's been no one player who has looked totally on it

Ronnie better win today.

Otherwise the SF line up is going to look abysmal

Jeezo, what a fluke from Higgins

comment by kinsang (U3346)

That pink from Higgins was one of the worse positional shots I've seen..............and the attempt at the plant after wasn't much better!!!!

Higgins looks like he will get out 7-9 having probably played some of the worse snooker he has ever done in those final 3 frames

posted on 1/5/24

John is a lucky boy. Still all to play for tonight.

The last couple of frames from Kyren was just totally abysmal. I was actually about to say Kyren was looking as good as I’ve ever seen him. It’s just amazing how these ‘young’ players just lose it under pressure.

Remember since 2006, there’s only been 2 finals without Ronnie, Higgins or Selby

The way some of these players have capitulated against these 3 over the years is just crazy.

Judd said it's all about titles... I beg to differ... It's all about triple crowns, & in particular.. World crowns.. He's too good to win just 1

posted on 1/5/24

Judd just saying that to take the pressure off.

I do believe he will target the ranking titles tally as it is a much more attainable target for him, but yes he definitely wants more Triple crowns and Worlds.

Bingham missed a black off its spot and gifted Ronnie the frame. It’s a pretty low standard tournament. Maybe the pockets are tighter, but it just shows that the players have become spoilt over the years.

I think the 2020 Covid tournament also had tight pockets and we saw a number of shocks there.
