Ruthlessly punishes an error by John for another Ronnie century. The 100th of the championship.

That error broke Higgins. Ronnie wins the next two, with a century at the last. 15-9.

Disappointing from Williams, just went for a bit too much when there was a safety shot on. Trump went onto win 14-11.
― xyzzzz__, Saturday, 30 April 2022 13:53 (two years ago) link
Williams was going to lose the next but Judd got unlucky and then Williams pulled a couple of gorgeous long pots on the yellow and green to keep himself in the match.
― xyzzzz__, Saturday, 30 April 2022 14:16 (two years ago) link
14-13.
Williams is not winning in one visit, it's getting nervy but Williams is killing it with his long potting. Judd will win if he scores heavy under pressure, but its getting scrappy and Williams will win if it shapes up like that.
― xyzzzz__, Saturday, 30 April 2022 14:37 (two years ago) link
At the next Williams pots a beautiful long red bridging over the green.
Went on to clear up, 14-14.
― xyzzzz__, Saturday, 30 April 2022 14:45 (two years ago) link
15-15. Williams has shot his 16th century, equalling Hendry's record (from 2002) in a WC.

Got scrappy. Williams in front for the first time, he's one away.
― xyzzzz__, Saturday, 30 April 2022 16:18 (two years ago) link
V poor safety from Judd. He is better at his tactical game these days but I think he'll be found out with a great great player putting on the pressure.
― xyzzzz__, Saturday, 30 April 2022 16:21 (two years ago) link
Judd wins a scrappy frame! We are on to a decider.

After a testy safety battle it's Trump with the first chance..
― xyzzzz__, Saturday, 30 April 2022 17:10 (two years ago) link
Judd missed it but I don't know how Williams wins from here..

I've watched more this year than I have in ages. The semis have been brilliant. That O'Sullivan 80 clearance (minus the black because Ronnie) was something else. I think Williams looked knackered at various points. Think that eventually caught up with him.

Ronnie Vs Trump. Ronnie has outclassed every opponent since the 2nd round and Trump hasn't felt as confident all season and hard a much harder path to the final.
Has to be Ronnie but there is that pressure of a 7th world title. Really looking forward to it.
― xyzzzz__, Saturday, 30 April 2022 19:48 (two years ago) link
3-1 O'Sullivan. Judd lost on a re-spotted black and showed weakness, especially on a green.

what happened there
― im zelenky (||||||||), Sunday, 1 May 2022 15:13 (two years ago) link
Looks like Ronnie blurted out something rude, words were said etc.
Judd did really well to pot that long yellow and win the frame from there. 5-3.

excited for the memes of what he was saying into trump's ear at the end

Ronnie more than kept it together at the end. Well done Judd on stretching it to the last session.
― xyzzzz__, Monday, 2 May 2022 20:11 (two years ago) link
Of his world titles that was maybe one of his easiest. No one really gave him a game. John Higgins and Judd came into the matches slightly drained or not in tip top shape, and Ronnie was utterly ruthless.

Really pity Vafaei. If you are going to be an arsehole be actually good at what you do.
Ronnie is just an animal out there man: 10-2.
― xyzzzz__, Saturday, 22 April 2023 14:37 (one year ago) link
there was that astonishing missed pink in the opening frame, but I could see he meant business and was going to clean up today
― calzino, Saturday, 22 April 2023 14:51 (one year ago) link
another century for Ron, he's not fucking about.
― calzino, Saturday, 22 April 2023 15:15 (one year ago) link
and another!
― calzino, Saturday, 22 April 2023 15:25 (one year ago) link
If I was playing Ron I would simply not trash-talk him and then spend 12 frames being a spectator to his brilliance.

Yup, ruthless.

Two first time debuts in the QFs as well as Ronnie, Higgins, Selby.
Quite like to see Mark Allen win it.

Jones made a couple of errors but he hit back with a century.

Allen pulled off a nice little clearance there, 11-10
― xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 26 April 2023 11:35 (one year ago) link
Allen used his experience to get through 13-10.

Si McGill looks like a cracker. 8-8.

Ronnie played crappy last night but Brecel isn't that good and couldn't capitalise on it so they shared
Ronnie hasn't got going today either and Brecel has caught up and won four in a row: 10-10.
― xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 26 April 2023 14:36 (one year ago) link
Ronnie has shown nothing. Brecel is a brilliant break builder but is facing no opposition. One away from the SF.
