The Kay Suzanne Memorial Cup (UK PTC 4) !!

And Judd crawls over the line 4-1.

this is an excellent tournament even if Drago lost good to see it was close, i just hope he can keep this form until at least the uk quals
and it looks like we will have a Trump-Higgins final

i think Ronnie around 2004

I agree Wild... Ronnie too in that season was playing a level above anyone else... also Higgins when in the second half of the 2010/2011 season won just about everything

yeah I hope so too.. let's see if Trump can finally beat Higgins if John comes through this match... albeit if he does beat him it will be in a smaller tourney than the ones Higgins beat Trump in... Worlds and Changhai

Though Judd has beaten Higgins in a ptc match already.. semis of last season's antwerp open I reckon

But Hamilton may well spoil things as he recovers from 3 nil down to 3-2 against Higgins... not over yet...

yea but its not about winning its the manor they play in.

John had a successful time after his suspension but it was down to sheer balls and a will to win rather than play to a extremely high level.

I'm guessing the final's not starting on time.

Yeah I agree... you may not win everything but play to a level that's above anyone else... only the greats of the game can make that happen, and if Judd continues like this he too will become a great of the game

Decider alert between Hamilton and Higgins.

Hamilton flying now... after trailing 3 nil, levels at 3 all with a ton of 105... and Higgins has hardly potted a ball since that 3 nil lead... decider now

Hamilton breaks down on a break of 48... a lifeline for Higgins

Higgins is in... he usually thrives in situations like these.

he didnt this time but closes the gap to just 8 points... 40-48 to hamilton... one red left

Just the colours left for a 4-3 victory for Higgins.

So in the end Hamilton's fightback was for nothing. We still get Higgins v Trump although a little later than expected.

Higgins has to up his game to beat Judd but he can do it.

yeah as usual when Higgins is sat out cold comes out like nothing happened and wins the match nevertheless

Hamilton had a great chance there, but let it slip with that missed red attempt to right center

We all know he can for obvious reasons.. but on this format I reckon Judd will win this one

*John Higgins* 4 Anthony Hamilton 3



Higgins is truly never beaten until he,s beaten is he,once again Higgins pulls out some wizardy!.
"The sherrif of pottingham put up a good fight but he ran out of arrows towards the end!.




Brilliant stuff John,once again you,ve showed your non fans how good you are,will they come up with how "lucky" you are!.



I can,t see him gettin past Trump though,but you never know.

I think Higgins'll up his game when he needs to. I remember a few saying Judd would win over bo19 in Shanghai because that was shorter than the World final. I think Higgins'll go behind 0-3 or 1-3 but play well when it counts.

This should be a great final.

yeah but this format is even shorter and Judd has already beaten Higgins in a ptc match, a semi final at the Antwerp Open. Think Judd will win, but as you say you never know with Higgins....

Final already underway

you give Higgins too much credit

Judd opens with a century, 102.

One chance and what does Judd make?? another ton, his 10th of the tourney superb stuff

Higgins levels at 1-1.

How do you figure? Higgins has a long history of doing exactly this to say nothing of having done it recently to Judd.

No matter great final to be seen for sure.

yeah Higgins responds in fashion with a 97 break..

Great final

Have you been smoking some serious 'weed' there Wild?

I saw all I needed to know about Trump when his 'ass' went against Carter at The Crucible.
