Cheers for the link - I didn't realise it was possible to link a video to play from a set time!
As for the shot itself - I don't think it was as narrow an angle as it appeared, but rather the unusual angle we're viewing from.

I've just been looking back at the World Rankings issued this time in 2012 (ie after China Open and before World Champs). Marcus Campbell was ranked at no. 20. Yet, just 3 years later, he's off the tour!

Jamie Burnett
Mark King
Adam Duffy/Jamie Jones
Alan McManus
Ryan Day
Yu Delu
Mark Davis/Ken Doherty
Matthew Stevens/Joe Swail
Li Hang/Stuart Carrington
Robin Hull
Fergal O'Brien
Zhang Anda/Liang Wenbo
Jimmy Robertson
Robbie Williams/Michael Holt
Matthew Selt/Tom Ford
Andrew Higginson/Robert Milkins

Best case scenario:
Craig Steadman
Anthony McGill
Adam Duffy/Jamie Jones
Mitchell Mann
Jak Jones
Graeme Dott
Mark Davis/Ken Doherty
Matthew Stevens/Joe Swail
Li Hang/Stuart Carrington
Igor Figueiredo
Kurt Maflin
Zhang Anda/Liang Wenbo

Matthew Selt/Tom Ford
Andrew Higginson/Robert Milkins

Even best case scenario isn't all that great. Pretty disappointing list of qualifiers...

Think of all the animals you ever heard about
Like rhinoceroses and tigers, cats and mink
There are lots of funny animals in all this world
But have you ever seen a panther that is pink?
Think!
A panther that is positively pink!

Well here he is, the Pink Panther
The Pink Panther
Ev'rybody loves a panther that's pink
He really is a groovy cat
And he's a gentleman, a scholar, he's a acrobat

He's in the pink, the Pink Panther
The rinky-dink panther
And it's as plain as your nose
That he's the one and only, truly original
Panther pink from head to toe
That he's the one and only, truly original
Panther Pink Panther from head to toe!

Joe Swail hasent played at the Crucible since 2009 when he lost 10-4 to Marco Fu.


Between then and now he dropped off the tour and got back on and a win tomorrow would place him back in the top 64
