Evergrande China Championship Last 16 !!

From what I remember, Judd wasn’t garbage in Shanghai either. Didn’t he play great stuff in the match before he lost to Allen?

Willo is 44 and Trump is 30. They are at different stages of their lives and careers. The comparisons are ridiculous

He's only played 2 tournaments since then. He'll win at least one more this season I'm sure, maybe the UK.

Mark Williams made it clear he was just going through the motions...Judd obviously cares

Agree. Judd tried his hardest, but still came up well short.

It looks like Judd has returned to his old habits. I really thought he had turned a corner after last season, and especially the WC. These are the sort of matches he should be putting to bed with ease.

I disagree, I think it’s too early to tell if he’s returned to old habits. He’s played what, three tournaments and won one of them?

Perry has a good record against Judd and I don’t think losing to him changes the fact that he turned a corner last season. I also think Perry’s too good a player to say anybody should dispatch him with ease.

It’s only September, he could still win multiple tournaments this season. He was never going to be a Hendry/Davis-like dominator but he could well end up the most successful player of this season.

Old timers brigade still going strong. Come on WIllo and Pezza

EAT CROW, FOOLS!

Hossein the Iranian beat Anthony McGill.

WHAT!!!!!,JUDD GOT BEAT!!!!!!.


Well of course,it had to happen sometime,even the GREATS Davis,Hendry,Ronnie,MJW lost shortly after they won there 1st WC,or did they? ,i have,nt got time to look it up atm.


Since the Worlds this is only his 2nd loss ,so it,s wayyyy too early to acusse him of being back to the normal Trump.



Bitter for Ants,losing 5-4,but well done to Vafaei.




COME ONNNN JOHN!.

Not as if Hendry and Davis did not lose Matches.


Players lose Matches

murphy back to being a pro snooker player so far this season.

John Higgins opened up with a 106 had a 82 in frame 3 to lead 3-0 now hes 4-3 down against Kurt Maflin

yeah, his golf sucked.

Higgins must put Selt to the sword.

Higgins loses 5-3 from 3-0 up.

Its sad what decline can do. The last time I've seen Higgins play at his peak and destroy his opponents must be ages ago. Everytime I see him play now he's struggling to even make 50's.

Aye,was thinkin the same just the other day.I canny even remember the last time he played Peak,A+ snooker and really destroyed an Opponent.


Even when i looked at the live scoreing and saw he knocked in a *106* in the very 1st frame,i thought,Wow!,he,s finaly made a century again,rarely makes em these days.


When i saw Jhe went 3-0 up,i thought,it,s gonna be tattie bye Kurt soon.Ah,well,fair Play to Kurt.




Even though Selby won 5-2,he,s back his normal self again,he only knocked in two 50+ breaks.

yes. it shows that even when well past your prime you can still do damage at the World Championship. But at the same time thats what cost him the finals.

I'm pretty sure prime Higgins would have won the 2017 and 2018 World Championship. This year he had no chance though.

Higgins should have retired at the end of last season.

Overall Think Pink leaderboard after today's results

Judd should have played better and now his fifteen match ranking winning streak stretching back six months has come to an end.

Notice how the Judd fans take it on the chin and try to learn so improve your own behaviour.

I suppose what we should be saying is:

He was ill / fatigued / bi-polar / unlucky /not up for it / not trying / cheated.... (delete as appropriate).

But no - we rise above that type of thing.

Pag agg.
