I don't really "get" the Trump-Wilson rivalry. It seems to be a bit contrived, and a bit out of nowhere...

Journalists just need something to write about.

I think it was stirred up a bit by the press.

Certainly think he's a good shout to make a decent defence of the Masters. You would expect him to beat Brecel tomorrow and presuming he wins that will start favourite for a quarter final against Ding or Lisowski.
But there have been upsets involving defending champions before. Indeed Allen sent a reigning champion out in the first round three years ago

Alex Higgins (2)
Mark Williams (2)
John Higgins (2)
You can definitly see Selby winning it again at some point but i cant see anyone other than him getting close to 7
9 Players on that list with 5 of them Retired or decesed.
Maybe Hendry makes a comeback
Johnny Bravo was right about something.
