Well. Day himself is a choker so you can't expect him to take advantage of a possible Hawkins breakdown.

Depends whether he plays Ronnie in the final.

that is the crux with Hawkins he can play to a high standard but theres this mental block playing Ronnie.

They certainly aren't over charging.

One year my tickets for the Welsh Open all day quarters, all day semis and all day final came to £100 exactly. And that included P&P.

Granted that was about five years ago, but still. There's good prices to be had. Especially for smaller tournaments or early rounds.

Longer that break was going the more anxious Hawkins was getting with a record on the cards

Indeed. Hawkins won a decider against Ronnie at the worlds FFS. Give the man some respect.

Absolutely. And what about the 2013 final when Ronnie had to play out of his skin to beat Barry? The way Hawkins played in that match, he didn't strike me as someone who has a mental block against Ronnie.
