snooker world championship final

Astonishing two ball plant from Williams

12-7. Ruthless atm, this could be over quick.

At the next Higgins had a decent chance of a red but he misses by a bit, understandably under pressure.

What a red along the cushion from Williams to keep that break going

13-7

Williams is tearing it up rn

His timing is totally off rn. Higgins missing another after an unforced error from Williams.

This is a break of 35 but he has a couple of such terrific pots to keep it going.

14-7. Higgins needs to get one frame to get to a final session.

Higgins won the first after the mid-session.

In the next Williams went careless as he was about to win it. Now Higgins - after a stunning red - is favourite to steal this.

Great clearance at the last chance saloon: 14-9

Higgins just made a double to keep a frame winning break going. Now he is on a maximum!

Missed the next: 14-10! Match is back on!

Can anyone point me to a stream where I can watch this?

Not sure re: streams - just watching it on TV.

Williams wins the last frame for 15-10. Still, there is just about a match on tonight.

Final session then.

Williams pots a beautiful opening red to the middle but its a tough angle on the black which is missed. Higgins currently on 29 and a strong favourite.

This is going to be a long session, isn't it?

Clears up with a century: 15-11. xp = the last session was very quick, hardly any tactical stuff. I'd expect that to crop in if Higgins can get close.

Only action I'll be able to see from this tournament, but bring it on you senior citizens.

Williams found a plant to get the break going lol.

(still Williams-Higgins feels like I'm watching a forgettable 2008 semis or something. Except they're even uglier)

well well that was frame ball, tough red to the middle. I'd fancy John to clear up from here.

Terrific Brown to yellow from John, forcing position there.

You are John fucking Virgo and I claim my 5 quid

Fantastic clearance - this could still be a classic final: 15-12

Mark Williams looks like he's going to have a cardiac arrest tonight.

LOL why are you attacking me :-)

Sorry, just banter :) Love your commentary, am watching meself

cool, promise I won't go "where is the cue ball going?" in CAPS as if I'm shouting.

what a pink to the middle from Williams, just pulled it out of the fire to try and make something happen for him tonight.

47 break, didn't get anything from the split - good safety...he'll need more of that to get to the finish line.

Higgins has left a tough red

misses it!

not floating in atm. Feeling for Williams, he is playing quite well and not doing a lot wrong.

great shot from green to the bunch of reds - should clear up, again.

great recovery shot from green to the final red.

Astonishing: 15-13

Terrific (3-ball) plant from Higgins, now behind the green. On top of this safety exchange

51 break from Higgins and puts the brown safe.

god this is a tough red - and misses it. Higgins now to win this

This is more impressive than Williams winning the first four frames in the afternoon session. Williams had actually a good couple of breaks.

Mid-session often stops this so we'll see. Should be good.

Such a classic crucible comeback, its what you get in this sport you don't get anywhere else. So many SF and Fs where there was no way back and then...the hunter often becomes the hunted.

higgins comeback on a human face forever

This is huge now..Williams on 40, pack split, should win.

oh dear..

Terrific opener from John, just fearing the worst now.

15-15

I think that's such a key frame. When Williams allowed John in the prev times there were awkward positions or not quite right splits. That chance was really, really good.

Not quite the cue ball control under the severest of pressures.

At the next another good chance for Williams. Its just heartbreaking to watch, can he break this cycle of defeat?
