Hopefully.
Nothing more fitting than 2 of the greatest entertainers in the game going h2h in a tournament in name of the other great entertainer.

Ronnie looks well up for this tournament, but hopes won't be too high just yet... at the English Open he lost very early v Wakelin...
funilly enough both could meet again in the 3rd round here..

Good to see Ronnie putting on a show, but playing like that against the lower ranked players isn't always the best indication for the rest of the tournament.

Good performance.
Will be rooting like mad for Jimmy to win his match.

There was a fairly sizable crowd in for a day one event like this. Was a bit surprised honestly.
Higgins and Ronnie were superb, as was Luca.

Knowing Jimmy's performances these days he'll probably spoil the party and lose today... hope not.

Jimmy yet again clears up to the black to win frame 2. Another series of great pots in that break
Just 2 frames away now from a Ronnie showdown.

Jimmy wins another frame on the colours, this time on the pink after a superb long red to set up a colours clearance
3-1

Jimmy missed a tricky cut on the green in the last frame to possibly win the match from there.. Allen won it on the colours.
Now 3-2 ahead still.
