I wonder if his broken English is a factor as the post match interviews can be a bit awkward. I don’t see any other reason why you’d put the Murphy match on TV ahead of Ding Brecel, for example.
They tend to prioritise the Ronnie and Judd matches for the 7pm matches on Eurosport
But you're right, there's no reason why Ding can't get the following match this evening? Is he not on TV at all? Very, very strange decision if so.
He was on tv in the evening, you idiots! His match has finished. Thankfully it won't be shown in the middle of the night like the Murphy game. Murphy comes on at 2am, when most folk are asleep. Great decision if you ask me.

Robertson has truly become a chore to watch, even Selby might be more lively these days

It could also be because of the Chinese time, true.
But isn’t Ronnie also a huge snooker star in China? Plus it’s Eurosport, not Chinasport.
Ding-Brecel’s probably the tie of the round and they stick him on in the morning before proper coverage starts?

I can't believe Youku are showing this Trump Yuan match so late. What were they thinking? Just incredible ineptitude really that they didn't put it on earlier. I've got work in the morning!

No 50+ breaks so far in the Judd-Yuan match, with neither player scoring more than 68 points in a frame. Not often you see a frame won with a score as low as 47...

3-3 I finish work in 18 minutes so hope the decider finishes by 6 as I would hate to drive home for 30 mins wondering what the result is.
