2-1 to Stevens

[Matt_2745]

Stevens playing very, very well, another faultless break for 2-1 after Hendry left one over the pocket for him.

[Matt_2745]

Should be another century too.

[JiangYu]

Century No. 2 from Stevens! Come on - you can do it!!

[Rane]

Second century from Stevens 2 -1

[Matt_2745]

Worrying times for Stephen, just missed a long pot and left Stevens with another chance

Stevens misses a red and leaves Hendry with another long range effort but again it is missed. Could do with a nice easy starter to get him going.

Too early to call it early times, I feel. There's only 1 frame between them and we know how very capable Hendry is at coming back. Similarly, we all know how Steven's can get when seeing the winning post, being 13-7 up against Mark Williams and a similar lead against Shaun Murphy in both World Champions. Saying that, I do still hope Steven's can pull it off. I really want to see him back in the Top 16.

Hah and he gets a fluke

Oh I appreciate that it's only 2-1 and anything could still happen...just the way Hendry is playing so far is slightly concerning because in his last three matches he has come out and looked great pretty much from the start. Here he's struggling to get going and if Stevens can make it 3-1 then it's certainly useful for him.

[Rane]

So far Hendry hasn´t really been hitting the long balls

[Matt_2745]

Oh dear, it's Stevens' turn to fluke one and this could be a framewinner, he's right in the reds now.

Isn't though, he's lost position.

[Rane]

Stevens is in on a fluke. Could be a good chance.
