I will be travelling to Dornbirn today via Zurich to see the first two rounds. They will play 3 sessions per day with 4 tables, which allows them to complete the 24 matches in two days. Will be interesting to see the location, the venue, and how the locals feel about snooker.

I then travel back to Swizerland for a couple of concerts...

Maybe 3 or 4 weak players, but L32 isn't really that far in. The qualifiers were played at a bad time. It will be interesting to see who gets the support from the local crowd.

As much as I'd love to see Fu do well again, he's got a tough first opponent in Lu Ning.

Oh absolutely i'm not discounting Lu Ning at all, After all he did whitewash Allen 5-0 in the qualifiers but considering that instead of Allen & Murphy in his section he has Lu Ning & Burden instead and with some of the draws he's been getting because he's no longer top 32 i think he'll take this.

Just 3. Lyu had a nice break, but couldn't finish the frame. Once Robertson started playing for snookers, Lyu realised he was in trouble, and cracked. Kid's had a bad run and has no confidence in himself

I'm busy today and Thursday. And Saturday afternoon.

I've arranged a few things, so I can't watch the final on Sunday in peace. rofl

We are having an early lunch here. All the matches were over by around midday, and none were very close. The four winners all played excellently and we've had plenty of breaks. The tables are playing nicely. There were about 60 spectators in to watch the first session, and the arena is just right for 4 tables.
