This might be a controversial opinion, but I'm gunna put my neck on the block: Selbo will win this competition, and he might not drop a frame.

This competition is there for the taking for an outsider. Why not Xintong?

Ali responds with a break of 77 earned by an excellent safety.
Cater can probably dictate the match in that respect.
Edit: Carter follows the 77 with a 117 to go 2-1.

Looks like Gould feels quite comfortable with being the defending champ. Looks he's playing even better than he did last year.
Until now at least.

Robin Hull is popular in Germany apparently.
Edit: Zhao equalises to go 2-2 at MSI some tremendous potting from Zhao in this frame.

Zhao needs a few lessons in the safety department. He could ask Selbo?

Is Joe Johnson out of a job? Feel like I haven't heard him commentate in a while.
