Ronnie O'Sullivan 2/1

I would avoid O'Sullivan at all cost always clear favorite but not played well the last few months(what I mean by that is he has looked beatable and if someone start to take a lead he will get frustrated again)

As I said Beatable and 2/1 stupid odds

Quarter final results:

Shaun Murphy 13-8 Anthony McGill
Barry Hawkins 13-12 Neil Robertson
Judd Trump 13-4 Ding Junhui
Stuart Bingham 13-9 Ronnie O'Sullivan

Semi Final lineup (which is all English):

Shaun Murphy V Barry Hawkins
Judd Trump V Stuart Bingham

the semis are best of 33 so first to 17 and are done over 4 sessions

Tomorrows Matches (1 Table setup now):
13:00-Shaun Murphy V Barry Hawkins
19:00-Judd Trump V Stuart Bingham
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Neil Robertson is now tied with Stuart Bingham for the high break with a 145, and the current standing for most centuries is as follows:

Neil Robertson-11-OUT
Barry Hawkins-7
Judd Trump-7
Ronnie O'Sullivan-7-OUT
Shaun Murphy-6
Stuart Bingham-4
Mark Selby-4-OUT
Anthony McGill-3-OUT
Mark Allen-3-OUT
Ding Junhui-2-OUT
Matthew Stevens-2-OUT
Matt Selt-2-OUT
Ricky Walden-2-OUT
Ali Carter-1-OUT
Marco Fu-1-OUT
Joe Perry-1-OUT
Zhang Anda-1-OUT
Mark Davis-1-OUT
John Higgins-1-OUT
Jimmy Robertson-1-OUT

Worth noting that Neil Robertson has 4 of the 5 highest breaks in the tournament

1-Neil Robertson and Stuart Bingham 145
2-Neil Robertson 143
3-Neil Robertson 142
4-Neil Robertson 141

only 2 players have gone above 140

I called Judd Trump before the tournament and I haven't changed my mind.

As I have said before you can't pot your way to the title and unless he starts playing more safe will be found out, especially now its best of 33 you need to expect a number of scrappy frames

Bingham will know this as well and use it to his advantage like he did with Ronnie.

in fact I think Judd would rather have played Ronnie for that reason.

I predict a Murphy V Bingham final
