Just spotted front row Brian and his wife, and a few other regulars.

The guy who was first to shake his hand was there all week and at the CoC, nice touch with giving the chalk to the young lad.

So a early finish lads. What to do now.

[trains]

They didn't do much research on those shots of the championship,Murphy's against Selby was good but the others ? meh

LOL. I would be it's the wrong height.

Well, that was about as far away from a midnight finish as it gets, a pretty disappointing end to a good week. Robertson probably played his worst-ever match on a big occasion such as this, and Murphy played one of his best, so it's no wonder the score is so one-sided.

Murphy played great all week and is a deserving champion. He did the damage early on today, then just took advantage of Robertson's many mistakes. He left him in the balls quite a few times, but Robertson just couldn't put anything together. Murphy also had a bit of luck when he needed it. It's amazing, if we look back to the very first match of this tournament, Mark Selby had a scoring visit in the decider to take Murphy out. What a different tournament this could have been... But as so often happens, Murphy survived and really raised his game for the rest of the week. Hopefully he can now be a factor in the remaining major events this season as well. :smile:

Looking forward to the German Masters.

about time murphy showed us what he can do when it all comes together for him, fully deserved win


i see all the ronnie fanboys are spitting dummies out he wasnt in the final and shaun won it......

I wish it was JV. WT is the best and they have this clown Virgo on all finals day. He talks one load of crap.

Couldn't agree more, JV just talks and talks. Dennis and Hendry make the best combo in my opinion, the both know the game inside and out and both can read the players and are mostly correct when it comes to shot prediction but the main thing is they don't talk so much

already done

One thing they almost all seem to do except Davis and Hendry is talk on/during the shot

JV even called up the new ref up on talking to the crowd as a player was about to make a shot. Yet how many times do they try to get a funny line before a shot, just enjoy the silence a bit more.

I have noticed than Hendry won't talk as the player is taking his shot, It seems like Hendry doesn't want to say anything while they are taking the shot even though he wont be heard by the players

[GeordieDS]

Yes, well done, Murphy. Perhaps in another 9 years you might fluke another major title.

Don't be silly Billy

Man that final sucked. If I was there in person I'd probably want my money back. Very disappointed in Neil's performance but you have to hand it to Shaun who was the most consistent player throughout the tournament and certainly the most deserving winner. Wouldn't be surprised if he kicked on from here and became a real contender for the worlds.

Edit: By the way, what was up with Murphy's speech at the end saying something like "I hope I never have to play him again if that's what it takes to beat the world no. 1."? Wake up Shaun you just won 10-2, I know you're supposed to be a nice guy but that was a tad patronising I thought.
