> Ronnie'll go out to Ding. He's no longer a tournament finalist, he showed that in Chengdu.

Can someone explain the context of this please? I always see it being posted around here. I don't get it :/

Is this a meme?

It's a quote from a user from about four years ago.

Ah I got it now. Ding and Chengdu part was confusing, I couldn't make any connection. So basically that guy thought Ronnie would lose to Ding at the CoC based on him losing to Mark at the IC, weird :|


Well he was inferring Ronnie was finished, in permanent decline. Let’s see now... over ten titles since then? More prob

Just had a little check...Ronnie's made 23(!) finals since that comment was made, winning 14 of them.

Do snooker events have assigned seating, or do you sit wherever you want?


For the semis and finals, it's numbered. Some events have sit where you like earlier on.

Good point. It's not a true "total clearance" unless the cue ball goes in a pocket too...

My regular Chinese takeaway isn't answering their phone, so I've ordered from the more expensive, toilet facility one.

This is the worst thing to ever happen to anyone.

Might as well just choke yourself on the Kung Pow Chicken mate. No point in living after that travesty.

Been saying since February I expected Ron to win either this or Tour Champs.

Well he's won this one, so it means he wont win the Tour. Unless he reaches the Final there, then I wont be too bothered.

Yeah but he should be used to it.He's always been the favourite and top contender to win the World Championship. Or lets say since 2000 or 2001 probably. So its not really something new for him.

Hopefully we'll see a ROS in topform at the Crucible. His recent record has been quite disappointing. Feels like ages since we've seen him at the one table stage.
