Semi Finals

Mark Selby v Jack Lisowski

Tom Ford v Mark Davis

if it wasent for Ronnie in PTC1 Selby could be going for his 3rd win

Selby

Selby is also closing the gap on Robbo as World no 1 .

with barhain points coming off soon and selby having no barhain points and Robbo winning there the gap between them is closing.

shock result in the PTC as Lisowski beats Selby 4 frames to 3

Mark Selby 3-4 Jack Lisowski
67(59)-12, 88(88)-23, 34-75, 110(74)-1, 54-65(58), 59(59)-62(62), 0-76(76)

Selby was leading 3-1 and just look at frames 5 and 6 how close was they lol

Wow

selby already won 2 final frames decider today the 3rd was to much for him.

He was probably distracted wanting to get home to check if Cliff mentioned him in part 3 of the interview.

Oh yes? why? This is snooker played by the traditional rules on match tables in an event carrying ranking points. Are you suggesting Selby wouldn't care? That's not like him I assure you. It is a shock, make no mistake.

no offense mate but if mark gets number 1 by winnng these ptc events his position as number 1 is no where near as good an achievemnt as being current world champion

A semi-final against an in-form opponent over a shortened format where he had already gained sufficient points to make the 'finals' event later in the season ... shocks are when Ding wins a ranking-event as a wildcard, when Davis beats the defending World Champion in 2010, when Hendry gets whitewashed by Marcus Campbell at a major etc. If you actually rate this as a shock, I wonder about your mental state ...

agree being world champion is more prestiegius theres no question about that.

BTW i posted that with selby being no 1 because you was online at the time a wum post lol

but thing is no point players making noices theres nothing to play im tweedling my thumbs at home i want to put food on the table then tournos coming around and they dont care ...in 3 PTC Selby made 13 centuries won almost 4,000 ranking points and £13,000 theres another 9 of these to go then the PTC Final.

Best of luck to Jack today, though.

If Selby gets to number 1 winning PTC matches then he deserves to. He will be number 1 because he has won the most matches so you can't argue with that.

Come on Ford please don't let the big head win this.

I'm not saying it's a major shock, but it's a shock result nonetheless, certainly as much as Williams losing in round 1 to Ian Glover or Robertson outed by Dom Dale in round 2. Jack hadn't won a professional match before this event.
As for Hendry whitewashed by Marcus Campbell ... well it was also a shock result but by no way a major shock neither. It happens to all of them.

It would help if we had coverage to see for ourselves how the balls were ... but that's fantasising

but he was 3-1 down and held his nerves and battled through... that at least we know. Many a rookie would have frozen facing a player like Selby.

in PTC 4 Starting on saturday he has a tougher route early on Last 64 against Mark Davis then last 32 against Proberbly Maguire or Perry.

where as Ford could play murphy last 32 but murphy isnt that hard winning 1 match in 3 outings so far.

he almost lost 4-1 54-65(58) then he almost lost 4-2 59(59)-62(62

yes ... almost be he didn't and that's what counts. he ws also 2-3 and 0-59 down and did take his chances.

that what i mean it was not as if selby threw frames away he battled hard to win

Well done Tom, doesn't make up for your loss to Judd in the Shanghai qualies for a bigger tournament but a nice week all the same :hatoff:
