Selby’s reputation definitely precedes him.
I do think Kyren’s bottle is overrated, though. Often hits balls way too hard when things get tense and is liable to throw in a terrible positional shot.
Kyren has more bottle than most of the 'younger' players at the moment, but against the very top players he still has some work to do...he'll get there.

It is really quite pronounced but I have never heard him mention it
Not sure he has, I wonder if his favourite is vanilla, chocolate, banana or strawberry. My favourite is strawberry, what's yours BSP?

In a tribute to American politics, Selby & Wilson are putting on a filibuster of a match here...

Out played him early on, yes, no disagreement there, but I think to "out-Selby" someone means being able to grind someone down with slow play and safety and drag a frame out to an hour. Maybe we should have a poll on what "out-Selby" an opponent means?

Kyren definitely had the safety edge over Selby today, Selby just can’t take control of exchanges.
Unexpected.
