Will played Ding, nice to see him win a home tournament......

I was really impressed with Xiao, I've got a feeling we're going to see a lot more of him in the future!!

A shame it couldn't go 9-7 there, but credit to Ding, a good break to close out the match. There was no doubt who the best player was this week, very composed and disciplined throughout, and he beat some great players on his way to the title.

A very good tournament this was, lots of close matches, some surprising runs, and some high quality snooker as well. :smile:

A bit of a weak month for snooker now, with only some short-format stuff, but the International Championship will be here soon enough. :smile:

A well deserved win for Ding who seems to have put more
effort into improving his overall game.

Xiao played well throughout this tournament however he made
some costly mistakes on some simple pots and seemed to lose
his composure.

Lots of great matches tho and hopefully more in the future
tournaments coming up.

I like the way Eurosport didn't put on the final session of the final live. D'oh!

Other than that, well done Ding.

Also to Xiao. Could he be another top name in the sport? I'd love to see a rivalry develop between two top Chinese players.
