All-Star World Championship Phase Two: Semi-Final Matches

In the end, 18 semi-final matches were nominated. These will now be narrowed down to two 'winners', which will make up the semi-finals of the All-Star World Championship.

You may choose up to two matches in your vote.

You have one week.

My selections were the 1982 Higgins-White semi-final and the 2003 Doherty-Hunter semi-final.

Forgot to get my nominations in, and now I can't vote for Williams-Hawkins 2018.

I nominated 1999 and 2002, I can remember May 2002 being a combination of good and bad for me, Arsenal beat Chelsea 2-0 in the FA Cup final on the same day Stephen Hendry completed his victory over Ronnie O'Sullivan. Unfortunately, Hendry would lose 18-17 in the final, I was devastated and still even today keep on thinking "what if" few days on Arsenal would beat Man United 1-0 at Old Trafford to win the title

Surprised at how well the 1999 semi-final between Hendry and O’Sullivan is doing. It’s one of the greatest matches ever, but it lacked the kind of tight finish other matches here had. The standard at the semi-final stage is the highest of any of these polls.

Love the Trump-Ding match in 2011 but not sure which to go with it.

When you consider some of the matches that weren't even nominated such as White 16-14 Davis in 1990 it shows how many great semi-finals there have been over the years.

According to the article you posted, yep: https://theoldgreenbaize.com/2020/04/11 ... ssion=true
