No chance, Ding's been scared stiff of Ronnie ever since that infamous Masters final. I think O'Sullivan will win handily.

Ronnie will beat Ding by a similar scoreline.
Higgins will thrash Wilson 13-5/6
Hawkins will beat Maguire 13-8
Muppet you going for an ROS CHE*T FINAL
It could well be. Never write off the che**t. However, I have a feeling Hawkins is going to have a decent run. Not sure if he can beat Higgins but you never know.

Cheers
I hope he has learnt from the loss to Selby last year but its a huge ask to beat the legend John Higgins.

Wilson sees this as as just another round.Hes here to win.And has the self belief/cockiness to do out.I love Higgins but time waits for no man and youth and vigour is going to send experience packing.

Higgins is a proper legend and Kyren knows how tough it will be , its all on who plays the better snooker.

Gj, I'm quietly confident of a Higgins win. Been reading a lot of his consistency or lack of but I think his consistency has been pretty good the last 6 months. Kyren seems a decent lad but I don't think he's there just yet.

Not overly fussed who wins Ronnie v ding
If Marco can click like late on last night could be a classic v Selby.
Hawk v Maguire has a decider written all over it.

So, what you're saying is, Higgins won't win it. Unless he wins it.
I don't think Andre agassi has a Scooby he has called Higgins to never win a world again and then says he could win it this year. Is that not an oxymoron ?.
No, it's just contradiction.

Don't want Ronnie or Ding to lose but I think it's going to be harder for Ding to beat Ronnie here. Hoping for a great match and some outstanding break building.

It should be the stand out tie of the quarters. If these two can't compile a hatful of tons, we're in trouble.
