snooker world championship final

8-8 after a nervous frame from both.

lockdown and covid makes this feel like a selby year ngl

Ronnie a tad unlucky but Williams took his chance well

Fucking fucked at the next. Loads of easy missed chances but Ronnie wins out

What a costly miss by Ronnie..

Ronnie recovered well for a century break. All square.

Ronnie is ahead...just terrific safety after a 60 break to get another chance

How far behind was Ronnie this afternoon? Looks comfortable now.

Maybe not.

Genius century, within one

He worked out a plant in the middle of that 👌👌👌

should be that then

fucked it

making hard work of this

Lol re-spotted black

Fuck me this frame

haha what

I turned it off after he put the green in, thinking that's that

Nah missed the blue

Ronnie does it

That was great fun

good

goo

See Selby has yet to make a century and while he can do a lot with his tactical game he'll also need to score heavy if Ronnie is on his game.

Selby can't get going rn.

I missed most of the first two frames. Commentators are talking about the number of kicks. Selby got a nasty one just now

Ronnie gets one too..it might need looking at.

Kick after kick after kick. Selby esp looks nervous though, even before those

Yup. Ronnie has been frustrated too but has managed more of a rhythm. 3-1

That's the story. Selby had some really bad misses without a kick, too. He looks really on edge.

4-1. Selby missed a green off the spot, Ronnie made two 50+ breaks. A dangerous moment here.

Selby played one good frame, the last one, yet is only two down.

Good to see Wilson got his mojo back

I think Selby got into the match in the penultimate frame last night. That was also good but yes he should've been 6-2 down.

Ronnie got the mother of all kicks. Didn't leave anything tho'.

Am not watching now, but any thoughts on the reason for all these kicks? I don't buy the 'humidity' thing, hasn't there been a heatwave all week in Sheffield? Why are there kicks only last night and now?

Well there was a change of balls between the first and second session and tbh that was the only kick in the frame.

It led to a half hour frame, Selby eventually strangles out a win and that's just how he likes it.

At the next Selby plays an attacking safety. Selby now in and the question is on his scoring, should win the frame in one visit.

Yup does it. 97 break, 5-5.

the narrative requires this to be an o'sullivan-wilson final

Awesome long pot from Selby to get the lead. O'Sullivan all over the shop, he had the first chance but tried to force it on a first visit.

Selby is strangling Ronnie's game.

This is goo

Good starter from Ronnie, but he then kisses the blue after the green, the misses the red. His timing is gone.

Selby has won the last five frames.

Damage limitation is the name of the game. 2-2 would be good but just from the first few exchanges that's looking optimistic, let's see.

Selby made a bad, bad error. Ronnie finally takes a chance to win the frame.

They share the next two, well done Ronnie. Last frame not that important.

Selby plays snooker with a massive Tory vibe sorry

Huge slice of fortune from Selby who totally screwed up, should've left the frame

This semi is really pretty bad, but I can enjoy bad snooker
