Do agree with TR on the earlier thread...
Robbo is scoring as well as ever, and this win over Selt from 5-2 down might give him the boost he needs. I get the feeling this season that's all he needs... a click and he'll win big tournaments again... and I think he'll win one this season. He did win the Hong Kong Masters but was an invitational.

Selby v Robbo in the Quarters would be very interesting, always love their matches and been quite a while since they played each other.
But I want MJW to win v Selby though.
The other ideal Quarters would be Bingtao v Higgins, Allen v Trump (even v Wenbo wuld be great) and the other Quarter cant be fussed.

Until 2012 they pretty much only played at the CL.
Ever since they have had some very high profile matches, including Finals of the UK and Masters, plus that great semi at the 2014 Worlds.

Robbie Williams 5-1 up against Robertson, still best of 11. Will need a massive comeback like yesterday or he'll be packing his bags.
On a side note I'm very happy there's a snooker player called Robbie Williams. If he ever gets a maxi the hashtag on social media has to be #shestheone47

It seems Joyce has chances first in Most frames but scores very low and Higgins finishes the job
Higgins 5-1 Joyce

Yan Bingtao is definitly the real deal how many times have we seen players flop after a win like he had against Ronnie but hes in to only his second Quarter Final following his Geman Masters run earlier this year when he lost 5-2 to Stuart Bingham.

Ah right I've been thinking Robo's situation was worse than it is then.
Oh and Neil has just two events to make it as he didn't qualify for Shanghhai.

He sure is, he's already beaten O'Suillivan and Selby comfortably in big tournaments, incredible for a 17 year old.

Joyce had chances in most frames reaching 50+ points in 4 of the 7 frames played and couldnt convert i will sugest Higgins needs to up his game considerably to beat Yan Bingtao.

I lot of players I like are in the last 16... Yan, Carter and HIggins won, Gould is favourite vs Milkins and let`s hope Liang can beat Donald Trump.
I hope Yan Bingtao wins the tournament.

Selby has always struggled to beat post-prime Williams who obviously is nowhere near the player he once was.
That makes me think that prime Williams would have beaten Selby a lot. At least more often than not.

Williams regularly beat Ronnie, Higgins and Hendry during his peak so he would have had no problems whatsoever with Selby.
