Maybe it is a little too early to write him off considering it's best of 25

Press Release:
Ding Junhui has asked to change his nickname to Pud from this moment forward. When asked why, his manager said it seemed appropriate because he is playing like a PUDding
Seriously, if (edit) Mark (edit) Davis was bad in the first round, Ding is playing worse.
He doesn't look interested in the slightest, and Hendry is doing him easily.
I can't see a third session being needed for this to be honest.
And finally, give Hendry 'some' credit. He ain't playing that badly, and he isn't letting himself be dragged down to Ding's level.

I think the key is that while Hendry is nailing more pots than we've seen in a while, he is not attempting more difficult pots because of that. He is rather trying to keep a fairly tight game despite he must be feeling like he can pot anything at the moment.

Ding is a poor chinese version of O'Sullivan for me. Yes he can play well but he has a worse temperament as I've seen for a young player. Whenever things don't go his way he just gives up. He'll never win anything with this attitude.
Having said that he has just made a great break and you still can't rule him out if things go his way.Last edited by cueman; 25 April 2008, 11:58 AM.

It's stating the obvious, but this match does entirely depend on whether Ding is going to play well in tonight's session or not. As one of the commentators said about Ding- he's a great potter and virtually unstoppable when in full swing, but other times he looks like a fish out of water. He does seem to have a bad attitude when he's not winning.
All credit to Hendry, he's made a few slip ups but his snooker today's been fantastic.

2 tortured genii (or should that be geniuses?) (or are both correct?)
Suspect all was not well with Ding today. Fell asleep in first frame, looked disinterested, not a happy bunny
