I can't remember how old he is. I think he's 14 or 15. He looks about 12 though lol.

Is that why he wears glasses.
I don't wear glasses. I have 20/15 vision. A bald eagle has around 20/5 vision. So I have about the same visual acuity as a mildly receding eagle.
But can you fly?

As I found out after scrolling through the Sky menu looking for it on ITV4.
Why did you think it was on ITV4?
I don't know. Maybe someone down the club talking about it. I remember Thepchaiya winning it last year. And, according to Iranu, that was on Eurosport. I must be getting old, I guess. Going senile.
that was three years ago.
Yes. It completely escaped my memory that they went through some of the previous winners at the very beginning of the programme. Telling us how Ryan Day was the winner last year.
You people are very easy to wind up.

The polo shirts are way too short... players showing their underwear all the time.

I don't mind polo shirts for an event like this. But can players please wear polos that actually fit. There's too much bare flesh on display.
Hopefully we will never see a time when polo shirts are worn during proper events.

Very much a tournament to dip in and out of. I can only watch for a while before it becomes tedious. Surprising that Selby bothers to show up for it.

Selby is outside the top 16 on the 1 year list. He wants to get enough ranking points to get into the top 16 and play in the Players championship next week. Although he is playing in the German Masters next week.

1) Commentary audio slightly ahead of video
2) Selby interview on ad-free had no audio, instead listening to arena music
3) Dave Gilbert post-match commentary silent so had Foulds and Studd replying to nothing and asking questions we couldn’t hear the answer to
It’s so bucking small-time. If you’re going to produce a novelty event at least present it competently.

Q: “What country has held the most Winter Olympics?”
Selby: “Montreal?”

Why do they call it a lag? They do it in billiards (or used to) but it was called “stringing”.

Good to see Dean Young winning his first match as a pro. Even at the Shoot-Out, it can be a start.
