    I generally support Ding so I'm pleased he's playing this well. I'm a Ronnie fan though so I'd enjoy a comeback. Would love Ding to win a world title though!

    Ronnie in a lot of trouble, Ding played really well but there were a few frames Ronnie could have knicked :( hope he can find 5th gear today and Ding goes down a peg or 2, his long potting was proper on yesterday.

    Selby broke the top break twice in 3 frames and hit 3 centuries in 4. New top break 143, Selby through with a session to spare 13-3 vs Fu. Higgins also through

    Just watched a few frames and I have to say I cannot see anyone beating Selby unless as often happens in sport he has peaked too soon. I am not an avid Snooker fan but for some reason really like the World Champs and know from trying how bloody difficult it is to play snooker like these boys.

    anyone but Higgins, but preferably Selby out of those left.

    O'Sullivan won first two frames of the session. Now 10-8 to Ding.

    Have to agree with this. Higgins is a great player, but I really don't want him to win it as he should've been banned years ago for match fixing
  • Ronnie on a maximum!!

    Too little to late? looks it unless he can reel of 4 frames in a row. Not looking good

    Two shots away and he misses one. Ronnie's gonna punish him.

    Blimey, i am watching live score updates. Back from the brink, still a long way to go

    I was thinking the same but from the off today :( on a Saturday yes but not normal work day and i sit in the middle of everyone.

    Unlucky Ronnie, presumably from updates sounded like Ding got a lucky in bits but also Ronnie clearly let Ding in. Ding / Selby should be a good game.
  • Fair play to Ding. Held his nerve there when Ronnie put him under pressure
