Awful shot by Ding there. At 52-0 up, to lose this frame could virtually kill off his challenge.
Selby is the Kicking King. 
Swings his cue wildly. Temper, temper.
Selby breaks down on 1, missing a regulation pink to the middle pocket. Predictably enough, he blames it on a kick. Should be 13-11 now.
Selby easily takes the first frame of the final session to go 15-11 up. Ding needs a miracle now.
Ding Ding, the bell is tolling.
15-11.
thats a cracking black after fucking up the position, Selby has it now
Superb pot on the black, this could be over real soon.
Assuming Selby wins it now, I wonder has there ever been a softer world championship won - four unseeded players and the Number 14 seed (Marco Fu) to win it.
I don’t rate Selby, he has an astounding safety game, but as you say is a brutal break builder, he’s a spoiler, a mullacher of a player

You can only beat what’s in front of you fair enough, but Selby has only a fraction of the natural ability of a Ronnie or even a Neil Robertson or Judd Trump. Ding as well on his game. Ding has played like the Number 17 ranked player that he currently is, for most of this final.
How many Coventry City jersies does that cunt in the front row have ?

Ding playing some stuff
Is he a bet?
Ding letting off the handbrake now, he’s really opening his legs and expressing himself
