And Ding's highest break is 26... pretty shocking really!

Maybe it's a bit early for such conclusions. Ding did not show a weak temperament when playing Fu ... it's been quite tense and gone to the decider! Same is also valid regarding his narrow loss to Murphy in China. Every player can have a bad day in office or a dire session... and it probably better be the first sesh than the last.

He may not have shown a weak temperament against Fu but he's not producing any sort of fighting power against Hendry. Maybe it is a little too early to write him off considering it's best of 25 but I still think Stephen's the favourite.Last edited by adamxx; 25 April 2008, 11:30 AM.
