snooker world championship final

got it safe, amazing.

holy shit, this yellow is epic

finally fkn left this yellow on for B

LOL

:D

You have tried to insert a duplicate message.

happy Bingham has won that, think it would've killed him.

Murphy has a considerable amount of matchplay experience. Still a blow but he can come back.

that frame was better than most films

LOL at pitched-down 'get in' from the crowd on the slo-mo replay there.

loved that.

that last frame seems to have gotten him into some of his earlier form..

by hook or by crook - one way.

one away - by many ways.

can't lose it now (please)

i know Jools wants a final frame decider tho, and good luck to him

Great break to finish up.

YES BINGHAM

yay :)

clutch

nice from smurphy too, think i will choose to like him from now on

nearly in tears watching him

murphy grammar fail

jimmy white looking sad in the background during winner's speech :(

Phew, nerves in shreds tbh.

I wasn't enjoying the final that much. I like some mixes of tactical and heavy scoring so the first 25 frames or so had little contrast.

But that 65 min thriller of a frame was great, glad Stuart kept coming and battling back. #exampletousall

final was too heavy-scoring for this one^ ;)

one thing bugs me

when he said 'great to beat the second best player in the final', murphy did a shocked face - this was all vaudeville, right?

yes

man fkn clearance by Ronnie to win the match and get into the Masters final.

RIP Steve Davis' career (he just announced he's retiring)

Alan McManus - thank you.

it was brilliant, was thinking of bumping this thread. that closing run of fifty breaks was magnificent, although his first won frame of the match was even better - one of the best centuries i've seen. who knew he could play like that?

meanwhile choker fu is choking

Gotta a tough-ish chance now.

my word, this is unlike him

On the colours now

Awesome

love these semi-finalists. ANYONE BUT SELBY

He has reached the SF before - two Asian players in the SFs for the first time

altho it'd keep this year's leicester theme going i spose xp

would loooooove a ding/fu final altho mcmanus has played so well it'd be a shame if he lost

McManus!

wow @ 8 centuries in 16 frames (Ding 5, McManus 3 at the moment)

Now Marco's only gone and rubbed his tip off :(

Shame really, its 8-8, back tomorrow so hope he can improvise in some way

McManus has got Ding in long safety battles: 9-8

stops the rot

that frame was quite a scrap and Ding just got the break. Ding was under a lot of pressure.

Now motoring on and on a 147 to make it three frames in a row.

Fails on the last black.

9th century in a SF - that's a record.

man alive, Alan won't let go although Ding has been reckless a couple of times since the break

black missed off the spot: 13-10, one more come back needed tonight

That is the worst safety ever

Four frame adv. You'd think Ding will get over the line but I've seen more unlikely comebacks.
