Ronnie had to hope for Judd to start choking I think. Can't see him winning any other way - he could easily reel off a couple of big breaks but, recently, he seems to lose the deciders when he does that...

It was one of those shots where it was actually easier to get it safe than leave it on.

Good point, the Kyren match is the best example of it.

I was expecting Ronnie to win that last frame.
He had the upper hand, but his safety let him down.

Yeah that's the one I was thinking of.
I wouldn't be surprised if he makes another century and then loses the decider.
Of course I'll be delighted to be wrong! I don't want to become the new MDG haha

Looks like he won't get the chance to lose the decider anyway.

Ronnie may as well wear a playboy bunny costume when he plays Judd these days.

At least Ronnie made Judd win it, rather than just handing him the match on a plate.

Higgins like clearance would be very much welcome now.
Not the Higgins of this afternoon though.
