Great pic. I would argue that the (19) in brackets is superfluous here, being that he’s holding the trophy and it clearly shows the score.


I'd argue the picture is superflous, as they put his name on it.


This is a great debate. If others get involved, it would be a mass debate.

Never. The only time it seemed things could get close was when Higgins reduced to 3-2 down after Ronnie was unlucky in a shot. And when Higgins had a chance to go 4-3 but luckily Ronnie made a brilliant double.

Apart from that, no not really.

King, Mavis, Holt.

This season the only really poor match he played was when he blew that 4-1 lead v Brecel. Had a great chance to win that tournament too.

Apart from that, he's been playing superb stuff.

If he didn't win the EO I think he would've skipped NI after winning Shanghai.


Who wouldn't? He's just reached 2 back to back finals more than 1000 miles apart, so yeah who wouldn't? We saw how tired Selby was at the CoC, and even him hadn't played as much as Ronnie has.

He's certainly rediscovered his puberty this season.

Are you accusing Ronnie of recently growing pubes?

The point when I thought Ronnie would win the tournament was when he was playing Williams in the quarters. He just looked like the champion. i think the last time he has won an event in China may be as far back as 1999.Id love Ronnie and Judd to play each other in a World final.

Yes. Ronnie would have been very frustrated because I know deep down he wants to take every COC going; but in the SM it was Judd's turn to lie down and take punishment from Ronnie. :-)

It was 10-3 and a great performance from Ronnie to come here from coventry and win But the score could have been closer Judd had starts in framess nd instead making 70s he broke down on 40 and well against top players you cant do that and it was a rout.

But when top players meet that can happen and has happened before.

Now its interesting if Ronnie going to win the 4 nation Million plus the World and UK he will have to win 7 rankers in a season hes never won 4 before. and it will smash the record of 5.

Re: Juss Sports Shanghai Masters Final !!!!!!

Ronnie will never win the 4 Home Nations this season.Thats just impossible. If I had to guess, I'd say he loses in NI and Scotland, and maybe wins the Welsh Open.

As for the UK, well thats the one he really should aim big, hoping he goes 1 match better than last time.

Thats the huge if isn't it...

Will Ronnie run out of steam come the Worlds?

If he doesnt win it, then I hope he wins 1 or 2 more rankers this season. The UK would be just perfect.

I doubt he'll win the Worlds but I don't really care.

that would be some achievement


winning one is already an achievment, he's won at least one since 2012, and that is something that isn't given enough praise I think.

Its all about intensity and eagerness. He's done it as good as he could have done in this tournament and that fist pump in the end summed it up.

Its almost impossible though to keep this intensity alive tournament after tournament and frame after frame. As long as he's doing it in the majors though he'll be the man to beat.

World Championship is a tottally different kettle of fish.


Last week in Coventry Hendry said when you have Jetlag you will either strugle or fly because in your mind you already got a good excuse why you lose so theres no pressure.
