It seemed that The English Open Final was seniors event but Now is the turn of Senior players not on the main tour stil not sure How Jimmy White and Ken Doherty got in to this but they are here as is the 7 Times World Champion Stephen Hendry.

Jimmy White is defending the Title but who will win it this year?

Why are their surnames spelled differently?

It's a traditional way of doing it in some Asian cultures, where adding the letter e to the name shows that you're the younger of the siblings. If females, the younger sibling usually has an a added somewhere...


No, I've made that up. I have no idea.

I promised my parents I'd go round theirs and watch the West Brom game tonight.

Should've Tivoed it. That sounds like a pretty good match, to be fair. Leo was only a pro last season. (Or is he still one?)

Why do we all have to have friends and loved ones? Can't we all just sit around and watch snooker? I hate having a life. <laugh>

Ps. That last bit was a joke.

He was a Pro for 3 years in the early 2000s and infact reached the last 32 of the UK Championship in 2002 beating James Wattana 9-3 in the last 64 before losing 9-8 to Graeme Dott in the last 32.

Oh, jokes. Really?

Shelley Higgins on Twitter said that if Leo won the tournament, she'd "get her tits out".

Was kind of hoping he'd win. <laugh>
