I thought so. Gritty rather than outstanding. He is perhaps a little too attacking at times but he showed guts


Took him to about frame 8 to make a bresk above 30. rofl

Did you not find him good to watch? I would have liked to have been there.

Yes, I did. He suffered from nerves a bit, I thought. But you could see the skill was there.

Shouldn't be used IMO.


Should have 64 at the venue, and then they can play the whole event in the Arena. Going to play in the Sports Hall is basically playing at a different venue. Conditions are different, plus surely it's got to be noticed by the players when people are moving in and out of the Sports Hall

With Ding now out, looking at the draw Ronnie should really make the semis at least...

Maybe only Hawkins can beat him in the last 16 even if he's playing well, but apart from him cant see any other real threat, under normal circumstances that is.

When does Ronnie play (when does the tournament start)?

That might explain his dip in form since winning that 2015 UK.

Of course it's not an excuse, but it doesn't exactly help his game either.

Surprised the bookies have Hamilton favourite against Lü Haotian. Lü just reached a ranking semi and has beat Hamilton 5-0 this season.
Selby 6-0 Eltahhan also seems a good bet.

Fair play to Neil Robertson.
