That 100% record, and likewise Ronnie O'Sullivan over Robert Milkins, I knew.

Two that I didn't are Mark Selby over Kyren Wilson and, more surprisingly, Kyren Wilson over Mark Williams.

Ding leads him 8:0 in the H2H which is quite crazy.

typically the number of matches played between each is pair is quite small, so would expect to see some oddities.

the compiler seems to have taken three matches as the criteria for inclusion, which seems low to me.

Includes a six-reds match, and five BO7s.

In longer matches, Ding has won 6-5 (Masters QF) and 6-4 (World Open SF) Its a shame they haven’t contested anything longer.

That's the game nowadays. Tournaments with best of elevens all the way through it, are considered having "long matches".

I always think Zhang’s older than he is. Must be confusing him with someone.

I always think he's newer on the scene than he is, but I think that's because he didn't do much for years, and is suddenly playing well.

But he played Hendry at the 2010 Crucible, which somehow, will be 14 years ago in a couple of months.
