He’s the ultimate competitor and match player, I’d be loathe to write him off. Easy to forget he’s reached three finals on the spin in the very recent past.
He did but ran out of steam.
Don’t think he has the stamina for the long matches. I have no idea who will win the worlds but I fancy Zhao to get to the semi finals.
Zhao loves the big occassion. He has been pretty brutal outside the two events that he has won. If he gets to quarters, he would be dangerous but I could just as easily see him going out to a qualifier in an early round.
That was a big miss from Higgins. Robertson rattled away the two frames. Now he should still see it out but we may have a good finish yet
John is a bit rattled
What was he at there…
Pressure
He looks rattled.
It’s understandable. Despite all he has won, this is massive at this stage of his career. I hope he gets over the line
This is a great chance. Come on John
Horrors
I thought this was done. I was watching that programme about doing up the old house in Stradbally with the missus!
9-8 incoming
I’ll have to stay up now
John is after tightening up big time. Looks rattled.
Stamina
9-9 incoming.
This would surely be the biggest comeback in a final since Stephen Hendry beat Mike Hallett 9-8 after trailing 8-2 in the 1991 Masters final.
