    • I don't think I've ever seen a World Number 1 play that badly.

      My gosh, Selby was abysmal.

            And I don't think I've ever seen a world No. 81 play so well, maybe the two are connected.

              • Selby should definately lost this match he was very lucky baird missed that blue into middle pocket as he was perfect on pink!

                Too be honest i dont think selby deserves to be number 1 and he wont be there long playing like that anyway thats for sure.

                • Selby has a very wonky cue action imo....

                    • I watched Sam play in that recent qualifier. I believe it was against Jimmy. It was obvious he could compete with anyone.

                      I think he was over-thinking a lot of shots today out of shear nervousness. I remember him being more fluent in his shot selection.

                      • Selby has been poor for 5 months. It's a good job he won in Shanghai or he would be the least impressive World Number 1 of all time.

                        But he's definitely better over distance; I don't think he likes these best of 7's.

                          Technically he became number one only after winning in Shanghai, so he has been very poor as number one so far. I don't expect that to last too long though.
