Allen a joy to watch when in full flow.
Thrashing Higgins, a delight to see
3 centuries already.

i think Shaun would be happy with 10-6 after what happened before the interval at 9-7 it would be a massive bonus

As long as Ronnie can win the last frame everything is under control. With 9-7 it's match on again.

Once again Ronnie is letting a big lead starting to slip up... more worried with the bucking audience now...

9-6.
Murphy'll need the last. Comebacks do happen from 10-6 but rarely.

If Murphy can win the last frame it will be huge.

Credit where it's due, Shaun has been a scoring machine since the MSI.
10-6 now... 9-7 would be very disappoiting.

If this session ends 9-7, Ronnie will feel like he's the one that's 9-7 behind.
So many poor shots after the MSI, especially that really poor containing safety to stick the red over the yellow pocket.

Just when you think he's focused he starts acting like a hammer, never could keep up with his head.

This could get pretty exciting tmrw. Even 10-6 gives Shaun a chance to narrow the gap and then who knows?

10:6 is still a mountain to claim. He would have to effectively win 7:2 tomorrow.

Ronnie is experienced enough to know 10-6 will still be job done, ending as many frames ahead as you start is still perfectly acceptable.

Thanks.
Nothing he hasn't done before, then.
Regarding Shaun, it's easier to play well when you don't expect to win the match. We'll see if he can maintain that when it goes close (new session may help).

Dennis Taylor says Ronnie's lost his focus and that has allowed Shaun to comeback.

Allen in amongst them to put the boot into a bad session for John. Both Ronnie and John have been completely dominated after the MSI.

I wonder if Ding would prefer to face Murphy than Ronnie in the next round.
Should he win?

I feel Ronnie put himself under undue pressure to finish the match 13-3 today.He was showing loads of emotion earlier but as soon as Shaun made sure there will be a third session Ronnie has looked a busted flush.

First thing he needs to do is sort out bucking safety. It cost him against Hawkins last year and it may do again here.
