It's psychological. Too much needle between these two.

Lord Murphy has left the arena to call a press conference to confirm he did.

I'm not sure. He's looked nervous and tense from the start. You may be right, but I feel like it's in his head.

Ronnie blew it this frame.
First he missed the brown, then he completely messed up an easy safe and fouled, and then he failed to get on the black from an easy pink.
If this ends 5-3, Shaun is right back in it and it will really hurt Ronnie. He should have won this session 7-1. Let's hope he gets 6-2.

I think so too. This game has a real edge to it because of Murphy's comments. They have both blown up mentally now

I don't think the crowd would've been too pleased if they'd ended up on the end of the street instead of in the arena watching this classy display.

And that's the right way to look at it. I would have taken a 5-3 at the start of the session.

5-3 isn't good enough with how badly Shaun has played.
Ronnie will feel like he's lost this session if it isn't 6-2.
