This might be the only plausible explanation for the scoreline. Normally, Ding should have no problem beating a player like Hamilton.

Can’t see past ding if he’s up for it


What do we think? Is he up for it?

Hamilton 3-2 up, 31 minute average frame time.

He hates it when lower ranked players win. And yet this is a paradox, because how will lower ranked players ever become top rankers unless they win? :-S

Can't find any links for the match. Did u guys find any ?
I'm still amazed by the scoreline. Ding is a class above Hamilton, yet for some reason he's lost the plot.

Seriously now, any links ???

Nevermind, it's over now.

Ding isnt the same player since that world championship semifinal defeat to Selby.

Thats still in his head. Understandably.

Great win for Anthony Hamilton. It was a pleasure just to see him playing in the tournament of Champions. To see him winning a class act like Ding, is even more impressive.

He's always had these performances in him to be fair. Aside from 13-14 season he's never been the most consistent of players.

What you on about?

He's won a ranking event since that defeat. He won the final 10-3.

So, Anthony Hamilton favourite for the tournament, yeah?

You're right. I did forget that tbh lol but I still think Ding has always been one of those players who get really affected by painful results. More than any other player. It took him 2 years to get over the Masters final in 07 and it took him a while to get over that Michael Wasley defeat too . I think he's very prone to mental blocks.

Would love to see him win the World championship one day. Would be a shame if it doesn't happen.

The MC was a bit odd

Hamilton can beat anyone on his day (as proved in the german masters) so its no surprise he won against Ding who didn't play well enough to win.

Yes, I'm seeing complaints about him on Twitter.

It really is a strange way of speaking isn't it that no-one else in the world does, ever

Not that surprised to see Hamilton win. He prefers playing the top boys. And his season needs a kick start after having to pull out of three tourneys I think due to back/neck injury. Hope he wins the final later.

I look forward to seeing the MC later tonight.
