I know the BBC are showing Ding and Higgins matches on BBC1 and 2. I wonder what'll be on 301?

I know, im having these problems too..really dont know who to watch..tis a shame, should bring the uk over two weeks instead, shame we got to miss some matches..a split screen option could be cool..i didnt realise 4 matches played at the same time
how crap is that.

If they are both TV tables, I might sit where I can see both games. Though that does get somewhat distracting.

great draw for matthew ding is there for the taking and a quarter final is there for matthew
Nothing short of winning the tournament will be seen as a big disappointment for the world champion

I'm so exciting at the thought of Stephen Hendry vs Jimmy White, my sausage might explode before I reach Telford.

He will struggle to beat Ford but I expect him to come through and knock out Ding who has the extra pressure of being defending champ.

White vs Hendry looks great on paper, then your mind tells you it ain't 1994 anymore and it'll be 2 sessions of absolute crap, bottling all over the place, worst player loses rather than best player wins.
That said, I can't wait

He might bring out the big play if he goes 8-6 down or something but you can't honestly say a match against Jimmy White in 2010 gets the juices flowing for him like the old days. He needs to find adversity to perform now and Jimmy is a player he's expected to beat, so I expect complacency from Stephen early on.
