Default World Snooker championships 2022

I was just relaxing watching a bit of snooker when only a pigeon flys into the Crucible theatre and lands on the table.

This frame has been an epic. Longest frame in Crucible history.

85 minute frame. I've watched shorter films.

It almost went to a re-spotted black had Selby have potted the black.

The defending champion looks like he's going out.

An 85 minute frame? Peter Ebdon would be proud.

Neil Robertson has done a 147 this evening.

He made a break of 147 but ended the frame with a score of 151.

Maguire has the snooker ability to win this, he's played well so far. Not sure whether he is mentally strong enough to beat Ronnie though. If he gets past Ronnie then I'll tip him to win it.

Williams has played well so far but I fancy Judd Trump to come through that half of the draw.

I'll go for Trump vs either Ronnie or Maguire for the final. And that's brave of me to write Higgins off.

Great semi-final line-up. 4 of the greatest players to ever pick up a snooker cue. All three members of the class of 92 are there along with today's superstar.

Mark Williams vs Judd Trump in one semi and the two great old rivals Ronnie o'sullivan and John Higgins lock horns once again in the other.

Judd Trump dominated the first session against Williams 7-1 up.

First time in the match Ronnie has taken a 2 frame advantage. 8-6 to Ronnie with 2 frames left to play today. Higgins needs to take at least 1 of those because Ronnie is hard to catch when he's in front.

Ronnie was 6-5 down but won the last 5 frames of the day to lead 10-6 overnight.

Trump vs Williams resumes shortly. Currently 11-5 to Trump. He could possibly win it tonight if he takes 6 of tonights 8 frames. Williams really needs to win tonights session.

Williams won 6-2 in tonights session so now Trump only leads 13-11 now. They play to a finish tomorrow afternoon.

Ronnie and Higgins resume their match in the morning.
