Hawkins one of those players who copes well with Selby's tactics...

but something tells me Selby's name on the trophy already... hope not.


will be his 2nd defended trophy this season.


As long as he doesn't defend the third, I don't mind.

Me neither. Let him have this one, Ronnie will get his hands on the next.

And like so ofen happens with Selby, he could have easily got beaten first round... Wang Yuchen for me had the best chance of beating him than everybody else he's faced. Wilson today was too far behind and left it too late.

Indeed. Only Ding stopped from 11/11 winning the 2016 Shanghai Final.

And from his first 11 ranking finals he only won 3. How things can change...

I think it'll be quite similar at the World Championship. If Selby gets beaten it'll be in the first round or in a bo25 match (2nd round or quarters).

Once he gets to the semis it will take a huge effort from someone to beat him.

If he does get to the Semis, I can only see Ronnie at his best beating him. Or Trump, who doesn't have any battle scars against him.

Well done to Barry,his Ranking finals tally now goes up to 7.
