Fu has scored really well all tournament excluding when he lost focus against Hawkins
I think he shades this 17-14

Two of the dourest players in the world colliding over a best of 33 frames. This match almost makes me wish we had best of 7s here. Almost.
I hope Fu wins.

Hes a nice guy and cool under pressure and hes one of the best break builders in the game.
Out of the players left I would say hes my favourite

Will be an interesting contest. Can see it being a good contest. Reckon Selby will have the lead tonight with Fu slightly tired. 33 frames is a long way to go though

Marco has made a uk final and a masters final can he complete the set by making his first world final.

Don't watch then, honestly the whining from some posters once their fav is gone is quite pathetic.

Is Ding the favourite, or is it Selby?

The BBC only has an hour of coverage, why show us all this? It wastes a sixth of the show.

Snooker time. Hope the real Mark Selby turns up for the remainder of the tournament. Two tough opponents left.

Selby's break-offs have been so poor in this tournament.

Good eye. Not many people know that they look almost exactly alike.

In the Ding v McManus match the black was hardly ever, if at all, tied up after the break off.
I've noticed with Selby, all through this tournament, he ties the black up so much from his break. No player wants (or should want) the black tied up.

Her designer stubble wasn't quite as stylish.

Having played rubbish the previous 3 rounds, I think the one table setup will make Selby play much much better.
