Burnett wins a very squeaky bum frame to go 4-2 up

Well done to steve davis for winning 5- 0

murphy looking amazing again he hit four centuries in a row

Is it really? That must have equalled Higgins' record. I thought Cope would have given Murphy a tough match. How wrong was I?

With that scoring i don't think he had the chance to give him a tough match. Now he's got a fairly straightforward route to the final. Maguire/Doherty next round, think he's got a good record against both. Shame.

Didn't Murphy do better than Higgins ? Murphy did it in a best of 9 frames, I thought Higgins did it in a best of > 9 frames - I honestly can't remember.

All we can hope for is Williams to get through and hopefully recapture his form from his glory days. I still can't believe he is the same player that won the BBC grand slam in 2002/2003.

First time I see Burnette play, rather slow, very hard to watch

Burnett 5-4 Williams

Williams lost this match rather than Burnett won. He missed a lot of simple frame balls that even my cat could pot.

[gensdon]

it's been a while since i last watched williams play, he is aaaaaaawful, for one, he missed two very very straight forward balls to the middle...

I have taken the whole day off for the Hamilton - Harold match. I could not sleep the whole night as nervous I am about this encounter! What a classic!

[elvaago]

YES! Two of the most exciting players ever to grace the green baize! I'll certainly be spending a lot of time on eurosport.de to watch this!

[PaulTheSoave]

Will it be on the TV table though? Maybe we should send a petition by fax to BBC Wales to convince them to screen it!

I am positively salivating at the prospect of a Bond vs Judge Quarter final.
