Oh John, what have you done.
Simple black missed off its spot at 50-0 up.
Hawkins now has a chance.
A frame nobody wanted to win goes the way of our bhoy. 11-7
Hon John
Hawkinsā missed brown to the middle proves the most crucial shot of the match so far. Had he potted it it would now be 10-8. Instead itās 11-7.
Have only watched a few minutes of this. Hard to get motivated to watch the vile John Higgins. He really is a stain on the sport.
Looking forward immensely to Ding v Selby this afternoon.

Some rather abysmal fare for a world semi-final this morning.
The champion will in reality be crowned this afternoon. Very skewed draw this year with Selby, Ding, Robertson, Murphy and Ronnie all in the top half.
Once Judd Trump crashed out early in the bottom half, it was a race to the bottom there.
I suspect it would be rather naive to write off the ultimate tournament player in the great John Higgins.
While the favourites have been knocking lumps out of each other in the congested top half of the draw, John has gone about his business quietly and relatively unnoticed in the bottom half, which is just the way heāll like it going into the final.
He should have plenty left in the tank come Sunday and Monday.
And heāll be there. Itās now 14-7 to the wily Provisional Potter.

Hawkins has been poor this morning. higgins hasnāt been great either. Stats up to last frame is Higgins had only potted 13 more balls in the match than Hawkins yet 6 frames ahead.
Itās now 15-7 to our bhoy. He can still win this match with a session to spare
History very much against the disgraced Higgins. Ray Reardon in 1978 the last man over 40 to win the World Championship. Dracula, unlike the vile Higgins was one of snookers gentlemen.

ONE AWAY. The forumās favourite now leads 16-7.
The jester will destroy either of these. Selby is the best tournament snooker player in the world

Ding will take care of that dreary cunt later on.
Big frame here for John. If he can wrap things up with a session to spare it would significantly benefit his rest and recovery ahead of the final.
End of session
Our Bhoy 16-8 Hawkins
Hon John
he is in a serious battle today though. looking forward to it. would like to see Ding do it.
Ding isnāt the worst of them but he doesnāt possess the mental toughness to deal with a piece of shit like Higgins in a final. Selby is the only man for him
