The endless snookers on green started at 70 - 42 as far as I remember. I don't have the complete scoring now at hand.
I'm glad Steve Davis is through to the quartes. Everything's possible against Dott.

What were Davis' breaks?

Well done Steve anyway. I think his game plan (over 17 frames) will be to attack Dott, so who knows ??

Davis's highest break was 91, early in the match. I don't remember the others - sorry - but no doubt someone will post them soon.

He looked very strong in going to 4-1 - his standard dropped a little after that, but it remained solid enough throughout.

Did you also go to bed at about 12:15a.m. during the 1985 World Final, about the time that Taylor was trying doubles and all sorts of things on the black?

[Cessy143]

Not at all DGE, I saw every ball of that final, no chance of me nodding off then............then again I was'nt working 50 odd hours a week back then

[Mitsuko]

I wasn't even born then

Yeah yeah Mitsy, no need to rub it in

Me neither, not even on the way.

[Caroline]

I do not understand why they have to make the 2 pairs in the top half draw finish their quater-final matches immedately within today. They can sandwich the other two pairs in the schedule and still have all four matches closed during these two days.

I am just worried Ding will really get very tired owe to such labouring arrangement.

[April madness]

Carol, but then when Ding gets to final, he'll have one day more to rest than his opponent, because his semifinal will be a day earlier

[Wim]

I think Carol wanted to say Ding could be so tired that this could effect his game and prevent him form qualifying so the extra day for the semis doesn't matter then

[April madness]

Don't think so Wim. Other players will have to play just as much and as often as Ding.
