ROS can miss
Marco won't get a better chance than this, has to make it 4-1.

The worst thing about tonight is that Muppet will probably be right about 6-0.

ROS seems to be playing without an opponent right now. Fu is just part of the audience :P

Yes, probably. Did he really predict it or was he just hoping?

Even broken clocks are right twice a day.

That's exactly what happened yesterday with my clock xD
I never knew Marco Fu would play this badly. He did have his chances.

It seems like the players have either been really excellent or really awful this week.

Yes, he's the only exception. And maybe Bingham too.

Ronnie played Brilliant stuff today but his match against McGill in Chengdu just as impressive and he still lost to Williams.

Pretty commanding lead for ROS...

Youre right Wild, every match is diferent... and who knows... Ding might take inspiration from MJW because Ding too hasn't beaten Ronnie for a long long time.

He potted 9 out of 9 long pots today. I can't remember the last time Ronnie potted all his attempted long pots in match! And a lot of these were absolute crackers!

Been a bit disappointing so far. So many matches I was looking forward to not going well, Mags v Judd, Judd v Selby, Murphy v Fu.
Hopefully Friday will be good, although I won't catch most of the Group semis.

But everybody expected Ronnie to win against MJW. Against Ding he'll only be a slight favourite, so there will be more pressure on Ding.

Only slight favourite considering Ding hasn't beat him since 2006?

Yeah, I would say Ronnie is a big favourite, but it's not like we expect Ding to fall apart, unlike MJW did against Ronnie in some matches prior to their encounter last week.
Ronnie is favourite, but not as favourite as he would have been against MJW put it that way.

Williams beating ROS was the most surprising match I ever saw.

I have a feeling Ronnie will want to put that right straight away and MJW might not beat him for the rest of his career if they meet again in more matches.
That was just a one off

According to him, Ronnie would lose against Bingo and was finished
Yeah he finished Fu really quick today
I'll also come back to him after Ronnie breaks Hendry's tons this season, when he said he wouldn't.
