All the talent in the World but there's something missing
Yeah, I think 80% of the players on the tour could do with Steve Peters tbh.

Yeah it would be more of a shock if Jack won now. He reminds me of a young Ronnie. He likes to play with flair and not get bogged down with the hard match work.

Although he might have seemed arrogant in the past he has worked hard to develop all aspects of his game. I have a great deal of respect for him as a couple of years ago I thought he had reached his ceiling.

Yep, although I feel like he blasted a couple of attempted splits of the pack unnecessarily in this frame.

I think Selby and Ronnie have been inspiration for Trump. Once Ronnie started adopting a more rounded match play style Judd's taken notice. Just like Ronnie had with Selby.
Let's face it. A Selby Ronnie hybrid is a complete player.

imo Lisowski is just a better version of Tony Drago. Great to watch when in full flow. But just can't see him become a prolific winner.
If he played in the late 90's , early 00's he wouldnt win a single ranker. But with the 20 rankers now and the amount of bo7 tournaments he has a strong chance. Jimmy Robertson took advantage of that as well. Dave Gilbert almost did.

Yeah, but how many "93+ breaks that end with the player potting a color that would make for a 100 break except that the referee had not yet respotted the previously-potted color" does he currently have...?
It's spelt 'colour'.

BTW, has anyone else read Steve Peters' book "The Chimp Paradox" that Ronnie credited for helping to turn his life/career around? I just finished reading it the other day, and found it to be very useful...

He would go up to 12th with only China Open to come to threaten that ranking and not enough points available to push him out of the top 15.
