Ronnie played so well after 0-2 though , didn't give Taylor a chance at all.

They should have this view for all matches all the time! Atleast as an option on the red button or something.
Agreed. It's better than the standard view as thats distorted because of the camera angle.
I agree and they could offer pretty much every table then as it would be easy to set up and could be just left.
I always watch the main match on the TV and have the secondary table on the Eurosport Player app - well worth £6.99 a month for snooker fans!

I always think "ah well theyve bollocksed up" thinking the shot isn't on, but suddenly the shot is on.. stupid camera angles!

I like the guy interviewing him, takes it in good fun, others would be fuming with Ronnie there.
"If your tip was a flavour of crisps what would it be?"
Selby too good tonight
He wasn’t even in top gear for most of it, didn’t have to be.
Jones couldn’t handle the main table pressure.
Hopefully the final today lives up to its billing with 9 world titles between them.

Domination.
World Grand Prix... Robertson was dumped out last night by Milkins (no shame in that, decent player who I saw beat him at the Crucible in 2013) and Trump staring down the barrel against Holt who is 3-2 up (first to 4).
Would be a huge shock to lose the 2 UK Championship finalists in the first round.
I doubt if Robertson regrets dropping out of the Scottish Open because the UKC final ended so late on the Sunday, and Trump fell earlier than he would have hoped in the Scottish.
Trump at the table with a chance to make it 3-3....

Karen Wilson did this up 13 on Ronnie with the score 3-2 in favour of Wilson . I have never seen something like this before from a top player
That was a crazy shot and I couldn't believe it when I saw the white drop!
As Neal Foulds said, it shouldn't have been anywhere near the corner pocket.
I think once that happened, mentally he was shot and just couldn't recover. It would have been one thing if the pink & black were safe but he didn't even manage that.
Ronnie has beaten him in a few big finals now, most notably of course the World Championship earlier this year where he reeled off 8 frames in a row when it was close at 10-8.
3 of their previous 5 meetings were also tournament finals and won by Ronnie, comfortably with the exception of the Champion of Champions in 2018 which was 10-9.
Once an opponent has that mental hold over you it's very difficult to overcome it and get over the winning line.
Hoping for wins today for Selby & Lisowski as that will make tomorrow's semi-final quite interesting. Lisowski at his best can beat anyone but he has to be the most inconsistent player on the circuit.
The other semi-final tonight sees Trump vs. O'Sullivan so I will be grabbing a beer and takeaway for that one!
Jack lisowski just forgot to pot a colour and potted two reds in a row . Don't think I have seen that before either
Solid performance by Judd Trump today in the semifinal. He overpowered O’Sullivan 6-1, so it will be Judd against Selby or Lisowski in the final
Quite surprisingly, Lisowski has beaten Selby 6-4 and will play against Judd in the final tomorrow.
Interesting final. It was 7-2 in favour of Judd, now it’s 8-7 Judd, so Lisowski showed great come back
Ok, so Judd Trump wins the final 10-7.
Trump & Lisowski have tested positive for Covid and will not take part in the Masters.
Huge blow for the tournament and wouldn’t be surprised if more follow.

Seen that and venue has moved from the Ally Pally. Still looking forward to it. Some snooker at least hopefully.
Trump apparently went on holiday to Dubai and there are videos of him partying out there
He's always been a dickhead.
Masters currently going on. Ronnie beats Ding 6-5 after being 0-3 then 3-5 down. Ronnie looks like he can’t pot a ball then has the knack of switching a gear and blitzing his opponent, must be mentally very difficult to play someone like that.
He threw Ding completely off his game. In the final frame, Ding made a completely weird decision to pot the brown ball from its starting spot all the way to the far corner pocket. Obviously, he missed, and Ronnie saw the match off from there.
Ronnie played very well and he looked so sharp . Hard to believe that the man is 45
Staggering, 5-4 up, 35 infront with 35 on the table. Red along the top cushion for the match. Higgins turns it down to play a snooker. Losses the frame. Someone with his experience should know when you have to chance to go for the pot.
Fortunately for him, Allen missing his brown has given Higgins control of the frame. He just has to make sure to not screw up any more.
He explained his thoughts very well in the post match interview about that . I don't think that it was that bad a decision. Hindsight is always easier
Didn't feel right at the time either though. He had the angle to get straight on the red. Your hand is on the table, finish it when you can.
Brilliant match this.
Indeed. Both players are at their absolute best, making every shot count and the tiniest of mistakes into turning points.
Absolutely unbelievable quality, none of the cue ball going all over the place nonsense. Making snooker look so easy
You can feel the respect they have for eachother.
Unreal game of snooker, feels like a final from decades ago.
One miss by Higgins and Ronnie has cleaned up again
What a break this is.
That's largely been the pattern of this match. One player makes a tiny mistake, and the other wins.
Stephen Hendry in commentary just adding to the magic
Wow, what am I watching? I recommend people tune into this if you're not already!!
