2016 World Championship discussion

[scottley]

thanks for that

I was just interested to know if Hann potted one off his smash? And if he did did he make a century? I deffo watched it at the time but can't remember, shame there seems to be no footage of it.

by data, I don't think he did well with the smash break
only one century in the match (PH 101) and QH highest break was 72, PH had several higher breaks than that.

BBC Sport "Going into Wednesday's evening session, which starts at 19:00 BST, world number 14 Fu remains a strong favourite to face Ding Junhui in the semi-finals."

They're always in a rush to get the report out, but per usual their attention to detail is poor!

[fredkite]

Thank God I was right. Usual sloppy reporting from the BBC, think i'll write to the Daily Mail

[Byrom]

Well better rushing to get it out than waiting too long

...Sun is shining here in Sheffield home of the Crucible and snookers greatest prize and summer is really upon us so get your shorts on put on that suntan lotion and shades and see you in a while---hang on errrrr

Very good Byrom, you would get a job at Mediacity, no problem at all.

Never seen Marco smile quite so much. Nice to see.

[Caroline]

Yes, great to see that he's managed to fight back this far! He's beginning to look really good again ....

I watched the last two frames in which Hawkins made two good breaks. I think essentially Fu has to really keep it tight not to let Hawkins chances like that. Still think Fu will prevail. Gutted my Eurosport here is not showing snooker but some Turkish basketball 😟😟

Pitiful, isn't it ....

I'm feeling Barry will win this match now. Fu seems to have thrown it away. He does have a tendency to do this. In any case we're in for a great finale to this Q4.

I'm taping the Higgins vs McManus match for later viewing

[crocodile]

Yes indeed. Thanks Baz, I asked for 10 - 6 and that's what I got. Now, give us a decider this evening please mate, ta.

The way Barry's going now he'll settle this long before a decider's up for discussion!

Shame he couldn't get to 10 - 10 but what a fightback from Baz, he's certainly giving us some entertainment this year isn't he.
He looked a bit deflated after loosing that last frame I thought, just hope he's got enough in the tank to keep it going.
