Great display from Ronnie so far

Hendry's record of tons so closer

I'm still amazed Ronnie is playing in 2 consecutive Chinese ranking events. He gives himself more chances to break these records and is under less pressure to perform well in a event.

Ronnie's scoring has been top draw today, taking frames in one visit.

Well it,s only a matter of time till he knicks that record from Hendry,i,m more bovered about him knicking the ranking finals/titles records crown.


I,ve always said,if Ron were to go on a beat this record that Hendry holds,= Ranking event finals: 57 (36 titles, 21 runner-ups),then i,ll be the first to and congratulate him,but he still has a lonnnnnnnnnnng way to go!.

Think what Ronnie could've achieved if he'd had Hendry's determination and focus his whole career.

Hendon "... slowing going match against Jamie Burnett"

What a surprise!

The only actual matches I'm going to be able to watch are the semis and final.

Maybe he would have burnt out 10 years ago if he had...

Yep,indeed "maybe"!,but lets not go back to the if,s n but,s,could have,s,should have,s and assumptions in general,it,s FACTS that count!.

ROS on a roll now, yet another century to go 4-1. McGill has to get his act together or he'll be heading home in 20 minutes.

11.30am

Zhou Yuelong 2-2 Ricky Walden
Jamie Burnett 2-2 Judd Trump
Marco Fu 2-2 David Gilbert
Anthony McGill 1-4 Ronnie O'Sullivan
Martin Gould 3-1 Mark Allen
Li Hang 3-1 Zhao Xintong

It's like Ronnie can't miss anymore.

Chance for McGill to counterattack, but won't be easy after the ROS onslaught he's sat through.

Li Hang goes 4-1 up on talented young Chinese amateur Zhao Xintong.

He was 4-1 to Jamie Jones as well, but it'd be unlikely he cameback from there again.

Allen won the last two frames, so it's 3-2 now.

Aww, I want Zhao Xintong to win.

Ants puts up a bit of a fight but it's 5-1 ROS in the end.

Classy stuff from Ronnie today.

Ronnie is the greatest break builder in snooker history. I don't think there's any doubt about that.

However, as you said, Hendry still holds a lot of important records like ranking wins and finals.

Trump isn't going to get very far, the way he's playing right now.

Three frames in a row from Allen, from 0-3 to 3-3. How will Gould respond?

Mark Allen fights back to level at 3-3 :)

Essex is pretty far from Chengdu.

Ronnie O'Sullivan 6-1 Anthony McGill

11.30am

Zhou Yuelong 3-3 Ricky Walden
Jamie Burnett 3-2 Judd Trump
Marco Fu 4-2 David Gilbert
Anthony McGill 1-6 Ronnie O'Sullivan
Martin Gould 3-3 Mark Allen
Li Hang 5-1 Zhao Xintong

ROS wins. Most likely Li Hang next unless Xintong makes a huge comeback.

Burnett 3-2 Trump
Gould 3-3 Allen
Li Hang 5-1 Zhao Xintong
Zhou Yuelong 3-3 Walden
Fu 4-2 Dave Gilbert

Er, I've got the scores sorted for the time being

That was one of Ronnie's best performances in China for a long long time. 3 centuries and a comfortable win over a opponent who played quite well.

And Li Hang is the next winner, beating Zhao Xintong 6-1.

It was indeed

He badly wants the record of tons I feel, it's just a matter of time now. He's the greatest breakbuilder in history no doubt.

Li Hang 6-1 Zhao Xintong
