If Geoff and Neal met was it a block buster of a match or a beta-block buster of a match.......

What is the point in entering then not turning up.
Mike Hallett who entered PTC4 was a no show this morning

Just noticed it but Tian Pengfei of course had to give PTC4 (and probably also PTC3 although I did not check) a miss because the clash with BTV. This of course is because the dates for the amateurs preliminary round were changed ... There are a lot of w/o; I presume - going by the names of mising players - many of them were involved in the six-red champs. Shame really.

On the flipside its a good thing that theres now so many different tournaments, invitationals etc taking place that mean there are clashes of events. Snookers now becoming in line with other sports who have numerous events taking place simultaneously over the world where the players pick and chose what they play in.

If the players are revolting, that's a bit worrying. This tournament is wholly for them, it's not as if the fans have anything to get excited about, so it's pretty disappointing that some players don't even give a sh*t.

no its far simpler than that ....
these quals was re arranged from thursday before the event like the other 2 PTC to this weekend players got prior engagements especially pengfei he was in china lol
its not a matter of not giving a rubbish if they pull out they lose £100 but proberbly with these this weekend they will get their money back if they got a good enough reason.

If these tournaments are as important as you have been trying to make out they are, then these players will be doing their utmost to enter them, to revolve their season around these tournaments.

Well whatever, it still sends out a bad message if the actual 'stars' can't even make it. Poor organisation.

BTW
ive said they are important for the Pros not Amataurs .
Most Amateurs that enter losing cash because you got to reach last 64 to make any money so not good when you draw Ronnie or selby in last 128.

That's why I put it in inverted commas, the players are the stars because they're the only ones in the f*cking thing. When players aren't turning up, then it's not even a snooker match let alone a spectacle.

however not organising qualifiers properly was poor but they are not on the main tour so anything they get from the PTC is a bonus they wouldnt have got ever before.
