Thursday 10th of November at the Ricoh Arena, Coventry.

It's Semi-Finals day at the Champion of Champins, and first up we have Shanghai Masters winner Ding Junhui up against last week's China Championship winner John Higgins, who has rediscovered his good old form.

Next it's 5 time World Champion and European Masters Finalist Ronnie O'Sullivan v Northern Ireland's Mark Allen, the pair spent 6 years from 2010 to 2016 without meeting each other, and now in the space of little more than a month meet twice.

Who shall win their respective semi-final match and book a place in the Final?

Friday 11th of November


Semi-Finals

1pm

Ding Junhui 5-6 John Higgins
Ding leads 11-8


7pm

Ronnie O'Sullivan v Mark Allen Tied at 2-2

Ding v Higgins... always good matches between both, I think Higgins will beat him this time around, in the h2h you can see DIng leads though.

Allen v Ronnie... as said above, the pair spent 6 years without crossing paths in pro matches, and now they meet twice. Allen isn't afraid of him, I think it'll be a close match.

Do you mean how well Ding plays against Ronnie?

He often doesn't play well at all.

The only consolation in Higgins winning 2 stright big events like this is that these aren't rankers, otherwise he could well have been on 30 rankers by tomorrow's evening, and that's not good... 2 above Ronnie :irk:

I hate when people use boxing analogies in other sports. <laugh>

If Higgins and Ding are actually punching each other, they should both be disqualified.
