He'll never give a free ball because "there's always a gap."

Virgo works for the BBC. He probably doesn't even know The Shanghai Masters exists.

All matches up to and including QFs best of 11 frames, SFs best
of 19 (9/10) frames & Final best of 21 (10/11) frames.
Though I'm not sure the tour needs another 'top players only tournament', at least the matches are decent length.
We should all agree to pull a sicky on the Friday.

Shanghai Masters always signaled the end of summer and beginning of autumn for me

Great idea - I don't know why all seasons aren't based around the snooker calendar.
Alternatively, use the September equinox.
For a more traditional approach observe when it starts to get a bit colder and leaves go brown and fall off of trees.

Are they changing the Imternational Championship this year?
