I guess there's more satisfaction in beating the best.
When players say they want to play the top players in finals, what I think they mean is they want to BEAT top players in finals. No point playing the best if you lose to them.

Selby the perfect example.
Selby was nearly doing cartwheels at 10-7 down to Ronnie and Higgins in both World finals he won.He knew he had them.Crazy self belief.A frightening opponent.

6-2 Selby? Too early to predict that?

Awesome crowd for a first round match.
And apparently Ronnie is the only draw in snooker.
