Not even Ronnie's greatest rivals, Hendry and Higgins, have played him in all TC Final events... this just goes to show how many important meetings these 2 today have had, and this one might not be the last time we see them together in the Final of a TC event...

I didn't take Ronnie's recent defeats in finals too hard. A defeat here however would be quite unpleasant, as it is a triple crown event and it's against Selby.

For once, I'm grateful.

Pulling off the M25....

Ronnie will have played Robbo, Trump, Higgins and Selby in his last 4 Finals, doesnt get any tougher than those. He only won against Robbo, but hopefully today he can put things right. If he plays rubbish like he did in his last 2, Selby is the winner.

Decline.

It would also mean that he'd move ahead of Steve Davis in the all-time ranking wins list. And obviously will always stay there, with Davis retired.
He'd also move ahead of Higgins again - although that 'battle' could go on for a while yet!

This is probably the first time i've considered Ronnie to genuinely be the underdog against Selby. As a neutral, at least. Their respective fans may think otherwise.

Selby just carries that 'man to beat' aura right now for me.
