Last 2 major tournaments have seen judd reverting to form and not producing in the “majors”. Which is a surprise I was beginning to fall for the hype that he was the new dominant force. To be fair he form has been sensational, but he has to retain WC now or the seasons been a disaster? Harsh possibly but true

I predicted Trump to lose 6-4. Also even predicted Murphy to reach the Final. We'll see....

So far, all 5 favourites went out to "lower" ranked players. It's getting interesting

Disaster? He's won 3 rankers, plus another final.
If that's a disaster then I dont know what a good season is.

Smurph is the only player left in the field who has won a tournament this season

Let's be honest there is no lower ranked players in this tournament they all proven that's why they are in It. No real surprises for me.

He won’t win the WC. Wouldn’t surprise me to see a first round exit given his struggles in the last few years against Thepchaiya, Wakelin and McLeod

Agree except for Carter beating Selby. That was a surprise, the others were fairly 50/50.

Murphy looked at Jimmy and said "you know the feeling when you're ready? When you just know you practised enough?" Jimmy looked a bit bewildered...

The top players judge themselves in the so called triple crown events not winning any this season and only having 3 in his whole career isn’t going to cut it

There was just an argument between a bus driver and a cab driver outside the Ally Pally.

Beating Selby isn't what it was two years ago.

Higgins v Hawk is my last match then back home.
Thanks SF for making my first Masters more enjoyable than it would have been on my own

Not really. At first I thought teo = ten, and it took me a while to realize that teo = two.
