So Robbo/Mink still have a chance to make it to the Final.

But they have to rely on Ronnie/Reanne losing their match. If they win or tie, it's Selby's team v Ronnie's in the Final.

If Selby-Kenna win the last match, they will face Robertson-Mink in the final.
Otherwise, they'll meet O'Sullivan-Evans.

Edit: I don't see Andre already post this... :(

Yes I do remember that. They made a great team, MJW and Ronnie. But yes, even for the very best in the world, playing scotch doubles is not easy to get any fluency.

I was thinking about this this morning. This whole thing about some of this tournament, and the British Open being on ITV1.

Will this lead to them rejigging some of the tournament formats? The only reason ITV don't put any Saturday afternoon play on is because it clashes with the horse racing.

It would be great if they reintroduced the bo25 final in the Tour Champs, with the final session being on ITV1.

Yes, good example.

They've turded with The Tour Championships long format too much.

That’d be great for the game. Bit of a coup getting any snooker on the main ITV channel, so imagine getting the TC on. You never know!

This year was great though.

Ronnie v MJW and Ronnie v Robbo were some of the best matches of the season.

yes this year it was pretty good. I still think the bo25 final needs to come back though. Its a stupid decision to have quarters,semis and final have the very same length (bo19).

Bo17,19,25 was great. At least make the final bo21.

Yeah the final should really be a longer format than the previous rounds.

Selby and Rebecca Kenna are 2-1 up over Ronnie and Evans. If Ronnie and Evans win the next frame, they're in the final. If they lose, they go home. I didn't expect this to be that dramatic.
