Ladbrokes World Grand Prix Last 16!!!

At the World Championship 2016 he wasnt missing any sitters at all. He was potting them with ease. He lost that match against Hawkins due to a weak safety game and a beast mode performance from the Hawk. And just a year ago in the Welsh Open he was playing brillant.

Even in Romania this season he wasn't missing them apart from the final with Trump. But since the final with Trump he keeps missing and missing. Very odd.

It basicially started from nowhere.

Early doors, but Hawkins v Robbo next round is what appears likely.

neil downplaying his chances and not feeling like the fav helps him. he can play freely and with no ecpectations at all

Mind games!

maybe more focus on puniditry, his book and his docu "american hustle" and less on practice?!?!

or having a smoking break.

did he relly smoke in between frames vs king last week?

neil is playing well, it has to be said.

but not the vintage Neil by any means. Walden should have beaten him hadnt he needed zillion chances to win frames. Robbo was abysmal from 2-0 up.

but hawkins case is more interesting. plays under pressure so well in one round and chokes in the following. i cant get behind that one. there is no in between.

Easy wins for Hawkins and Robbo so far it seems the outcome.

not in hawkins case. there is nothing easy when he plays.

Fair to say the absolute sitter to right middle missed from Ronnie has rpoved decisive thus far... he had the table at his mercy to possibly lead 1-0.

A 2-0 lead is nothing, that could be gone in a blink of an eye.

I think Ronnie will win this afternoon.

he will fight for sure

I think I know why Ronnie is missing so many sitters since Romania...

it's ever since he started that Hustle show... maybe he's missing them to give his opponent a false sense of security.

Problem for him, unlike the show, it doesn't work here.

Think Robbo deserves a bit more this time.

Who is winning the match, and what is the score?

Robertson looked very edgy in the first frame. But since Ron missed that sitter Robertson looks quite confident and hasnt given Ronnie a good chance so far. could be a whitewash.

Neil does not miss anything.

Yes very likely.

At least Ron could make a couple of tons and lose 4-2. I dont want this to be like the Kyren match when all the hard work was for nothing.

3-0 Robbo and 3-1 Hawkins.

Got the scores wrong but fancied both of them to win today. I never fancy Trump against an opponent with a good all round game.

Beats players who play a game similar to his but against a Hawkins type player he seems to struggle.

3-0 Neil

Really?



How the hell did that happen? The way Robertson is playing, I thought he'd have as much chance of beating Ronnie as I did.

neil deserves the lead.

Ronnie missing sitters is giving him confidence.
