ORDER OF PLAY





NOT AVAILABLE IN THE UK

Dotty can hold his own in the safety and tactical department, but when it comes to potting and scoring, Robbo is in a different stratosphere.
Robbo will win it 9-4.

At least this isn't taking place under the cloud of what happened in Kiev.

come on dotty!

What's your prediction then Alex?

10-8

COME ON ROBBO!

Think Robbo wins a tight final 10-8.

To whom?

When you look at some of the dross that’s won a ranking event since Hearn came in, Dott has to be the best player without one.

I’m not letting myself get too excited just yet because of what happened 2 years ago in Berlin

Worth noting Robertson is into his 3rd consecutive ranking event final.

Last season he also reached 4 on the bounce, starting at the Welsh Open.

This season though he's making them earlier, so we'll see how many he'll reach until the Worlds.

Agree will be close, dotty playing well and Robbo not as dominant as we thought earlier. Yes, he won tonight but Kyren pressed the right buttons, think dotty will press some more tomorrow. Should be a good final.

Tomorrow's winner will be the first person other than Ronnie or Judd to win a WGP/PC/TC since Barry Hawkins won the WGP in 2017.

Knocking Pac-Man on the head has helped Robertson.

Just getting round to watching Kell Brook from last night.

How will his performance affect today's snooker final?

That's right.

Bookies fancy 10-6

Is it a best of 19-frame final?

Yes.

I wonder why they switch to best of 19s from best of 17s.

Jill out and about in The Centaur.

Best of 17s always seem and odd number to me. First to 10 is a round number. First to 9 feels weird.
