JOHN HAGGIS (SCO) 10 - 3 RONNIE O'DUMPLING (ENG).
SUUUUUUUUPER BRAW STUFF FAE THE WIZARD OF WISHAW!!!.The whole o the tourney he played great,bar of course in a few frames.
Round 1 he WHITEWASHED the fresh crowned Welsh Open Champ,The Strangler.
POINTS made: 626 to Browns
92.
In the first 3 frames he rattled in centurys,a
*122*,then a
*133* followed by a
*121*.
In
The 1/4 Final,he WHITEWASHED his opponent again,this time Mark Selby was the victim .
At Mark he threw
FIVE 60+ breaks,1 bein a century,a
*100* and he almost totaly froze him out.Potted brilliant,played brilliant saftey play,long potting was top.
In that match,points made ended up bein
546,Mark only had a weeeeeee
7!.
This is the lowest number of points a player has scored in a best-of-11 ever!.
In his Semi-Final match,he did,nt quite manage to WHITEWASH his opponent,BUT,he gave him a bl**dy good hiding!.
He yet again,froze his opponent out for most of the match,played yet again brilliant in almost all depts of the game.
He chucked
FIVE 50+ers at The Warrior.
And he managed to have a total of
477 pts,Kyren had
177.
In frame 5,John came back to pinch the frame by
1 pt,after Kyren made a
65 break.
And in the Final,he trounced Ronnie 10-3!.In that match John made
EIGHT 50+ers,
3 of them were Centuries.
The Ronster made
three 50+ers,
2 were centuries.
And in that match,John ended up have a tally of
953 Pts,as to Ronnie havin
432.
Aye,Ronnie did,nt turn up,was country miles off his absolute best,but i,ve lost count of how many times many of his opponents didnae turn up.
Who,s knows if he would,ve won,if he had of played matchplay snooker and had,nt of taken on so many tough pots,but one can speculate on countless of matches,situations,just like goin on about the if,s n buts,should haves,should,nt haves etc,but he chose to go for many tough pots and he did,nt get em.
He went for a good few too many,pushed the Aircraft Carrier out,and it got very badly destroyed!.
As Wildey wrote,he tried,or better said,he did that tactic on Selby at the Worlds,especially in the last few frames,it paid off there,but backfired against John yesterday.Bein able to pull off tough pots,numerous tough pots,involves of course a very high risk factor,especially when there extreme pressure ones,like the few he took on against Selby at the Worlds,in which he got,but that tactic,of course canny go well all the time,but thats the high risk he took.
Ronnie had a good few chances in the very 1st frame,but blew em.
Some other points of note:In frame 7,instead of playin safe on the yellow,he tried a very tough double to the green bag,it,dearly cost him,as John ended up winning that frame.One can speculate,if he,d of played safe,he might of ended up winnin the frame,in which he would of <only> been
5-2 behind,instead
6-1.
In the Evening Session,in the 9th frame,he blobbed an easyish black,which again cost him dearly and in the 12th frame,he played a poor safety,in which Great auld John punished him again for makin the error.
What an incedible tourney it was for John.
He
won 28 frames and
only lost 4!!!!.
He knocked a total of
8 centuries!.
Played brilliant in all depts of the game,(bar positional play,which was of course sometimes brilliant,but was more ok,mediocre,good most of the time).
He WHITEWASHED 2 opponents,Gave The Warrior a good hiding and trounced The Ronster!.
MANY MANNNNY CONGRATS TO THE GREAT,AULD,WIZARD OF WISHAW,JOHN HIGGINS!.
