Why can't they wait till the end of the week and make a proper judgment of what was the best. For me the best match in terms of quality, tension and drama was Selby/Hawkins. BUT a couple of others have definitely been memorable.
yes that really is getting on my tits every bloody good match.

Its great to hear him. Its clear he still plays because snooker its everything to him. He has been saying for about 3-4 years now "I only play to be at the business end of tournements", but he isnt getting there so therefore its either delusion or love for the game. I'm sure its the latter.
It will be a sad day when he retires but it will be great if he moves to the BEEB. With Ken finishing and Stephen looking likely to in the next 2 years we're getting fresh blood at the BBC

I'm getting annoyed by people who think it's acceptable to talk to me and ask me to do stuff when Ding and Mark Williams are playing.

I like Ken but I wish he'd stay in the studio rather than the box, his voice is grating and doesn't suit those mikes, and a bit too cliched for my liking.

As John Parrot said, he's played well, done nothing wrong this match, soon to be going out.

Yep, and I have been shouted down most of the week. The first frame is massive, and it cannot be underestimated.........
That said Ding looks sharper than MJW, but it is such a short format that it is unforgiving to the other player.

You took the words right out of my mouth,
It must've been you were kissing me,
You took the words right out of my mouth,
I swear that it's true I was just about to say I love you.
Oooh.

What ?! Mark's had at least three chances in the first two frames, Ding's just taken his.

i am enjoying it and there is a place for it unlike rubbish clock bullocks but you want to see players have some chance in matches and shorter they are less chance you got of having a chance.
