There was definitely something off about things after the match.
What's this about?
Did something happen between the two?
O'Sullivan was asked about throwing the rest on the floor.
There's no way that that is what snake hissed him off. I think he just took the defeat very badly.

It was a great match. He'll be back.
Yeah...
Look, I know you're upset with your man losing yet again to the same fella, but just be grateful you're not an O'Sullivan fan. No other fanbase has had to go through the ringer as much Ronnie fans have had to over years.
As much as it hurts now, it could be a lot worse. Just remember that.

Ding will be ranked mid 20s if he doesn't do well at the 2021 UK

Does this make sense to you or not?
I know Brown just won the Welsh Open v the GOAT, but I can see some people not enjoying the fact a great match between MJW v Selby not on Table 1.

Hawkins safety catches middle pocket and leaves Zhou Yuelong with first chance.

Looks like I'll have to use a bookie stream to watch Willo v Selby.

Ding also looks pretty much nailed on to be 8th or 9th seed at the Crucible so will be in O'Sullivan's quarter

Ok. I dunno why that would upset Ding, but I guess he is the really sensitive sort.
At the end of the match it looked like Ron went over towards Ding, to bump elbows or at least acknowledge the match in some way as those two usually do. Then the camera cut to another shot of Ron immediately turning the other way, shaking his head. Obviously it’s hard to deduce exactly what happened, but I got the vibe that perhaps Ding avoided eye contact as Ronnie approached. Could be wrong.

I'm sure the only player they would put on Table 1 tomorrow would be ROS if he was playing in the afternoon.

Sour grapes from Ding probably.

Probably nothing.
This forum does have a tendency to overreact to things.

Does anyone outside the UK have the ES Player with English comms on?
I have absolutely no idea who that commentator is.

Oh no what a shame Hawkins looks like he's done the business barring snookers.

Some players can get it together like the flick of a switch, but that's just ridiculous.

Bingham v Hawkins, now that's what I call a 50/50 match.
Both not in good form this season.
