Dont understand this feeling that Higgins is fave Hes definitely not Lisowski was wowfulll today he missed when he was in too many times made it simple for higgins to win frames.
Higgins not creating chances by his own good play as soon as he comes up against someone that does that and he will Hes out.

For once I agree Higgins missed plenty and Jack was hopeless

Jack had chances but made too many unforced errors in his breaks. Had the chances to be level.
Higgins was clinical

Can someone clarify whether Ali Carter shaked Ronnie's hand or not after the match? News seemed to have just indicated he didn't?
