I don't about others, but I actually liked Judd up until the 2012 Masters, where started acting like a bit of a idiot and it got worse over time. Also, I personally don't find Judd's game that good to watch since he started toning it down and adding more safety. It probably makes him a more complete player, but worse as a spectacle.

It was a huge moment for me as an Indian :D
And Mehta played with a sublime touch :)




You also predicted that Ding would win,it,s still not over yet,but he surely can,t comeback now. :-)

Yeah me!
I did :)
An off topic question, how long have you guys been playing snooker?

Dind't expect things to be one sided in this match, stil not over and I'd still like Judd to win a few more frames to make the score a bit more respectful but it has to be said since 4-3 Ding has been on another level, just this last frame he broke down a bit and Judd had a chance to win it, but still couldn't.

And this will be Ding's 4th ranking title of the season (no way he'll lose this match now)

Even the greats like Ronnie, Higgins and Williams never managed to win 4 rankers in a season, so hats off to Ding :hatoff: Only Hendry, who else really, had 5 rankers in sucession no less in 1990/1991.

Yeah, they eat some weird stuff in China.


They normally eat stuff from bowls in China, if my local Chinese is any indication.

I tend to think the only reason that neither one of the triumvirate Ronnie, Higgins and Williams didn't do it was because there were far fewer ranking tournaments a season then. These players were busy concentrating on the important things like winning multiple World Championships and winning the bigger events like Masters and UK. In Williams case winning all three of the big ones in one season. Ding hasn't been good enough to get into the final of the World Championship yet, maybe never will.

Davis managed it and it's not like he had as many ranking events as even Hendry and the class of '92.
