Ronnie looks a bit bored too.

MJW could have been leading 3-1, but he'll take 2-2 all day.

If Ronnie doesn't improve, MJW will beat him tonight.

There were a lot of important matches that were really close and Williams could have easily won. Their battles at the Crucible in 06 and 10 for example and that Masters semifinal in 2010.

Thats true but back then MJW was playing really well. He had this great period from 2010-2011. And in 2006, he was still somewhat close to his prime. His late prime. He also won the China Open back then in the decider against Higgins.

He never had that attitude and hunger of a Hendry. When he won his second world title, he probably lessen his practice time and motivation went down. Still strange though how rapidly his level decreased.

Can't tell if it was a pot or a hit and hope. If it was a pot, it was really tight.


I should be surprised that Virgo and Taylor didn't even consider it, but I'm not.

And he'll have to win some scrappy frames if he faces Selby in the Final.
