Ding Junhui v Mark J Williams

Re: China Open Final Discussion!!

Ding Junhui is tied on 4 Ranking tournaments with Stephen Lee,Stephen Maguire and Neil Robertson can he tomorrow move one clear and right on the tail of Ken Doherty who has 6 ?

or will the Welsh Potting machine after 4 years at last win another Ranking tournament and close the gap on Higgins and Ronnie ?

i remember 4 years ago when mark after 3 years then won the china open we thought he might carry that on and get back on track however it never happened but i think he is playing better than he was 4 years ago.

Robertson wins the Grand Prix for the second time.
Ding wins the UK for the second time.
Selby wins The Masters for the second time.
Higgins wins The Welsh Open for the second time.

Whoever wins tomorrow will have won this twice.

think my focus will have to be on the Grand Prix this morning, then im straight out on the drink all day after that so im going to miss most of the final.

Hows Ding been playing so far? Is it worth me sticking on a bet on Williams to win it now?

So you're writing him off already? He won't play any different at Sheffield, he's John Higgins main challenger in the top half for sure.

Two in offs by Williams into either middle pocket. Unlucky!

5-4 is the fair score midway but 6-3 is on the cards now
