Semi Finals ongoing; O'Sullivan leading Hawkins 11-5 ( could win with a session to spare tonight ). Mark Selby leads Neil Robertson 5-3. Robertson got a tough aul draw considering he is world no.1 . They play another session today and 2 tomorrow - could go all the way to the wire.
After what appeared set for an early conclusion, when O'Sullivan led 10-5, looks like we have a real Crucible classic in prospect! Selby won six frames on the trot to take the lead, and though Ronnie levelled, he missed a simple pink in the last, allowing "The Jester from Leicester" to move ahead. With a potential 12 frames remaining, it'll be a surprise if it concludes before midnight.
O'Sullivan has never before been behind going into a final session of a final in Sheffield it seems. Must watch stuff ahead here for the evening.
15-14 now .....
Selby, and deservedly so. He found a way to win Vs O'Sullivan. And to be fair O'Sullivan was graceful in his speech afterward also in respect of it.
If I was cynical....losing a game that he was in total control........:p
New rankings for the irish next year starting of next season - 9 Mark Allen, 31 Fergal O'Brien, 33 Ken Doherty, 44 Gerald Greene, 71 David Morris and 94 Joe Swail - think this is based on money now
