Possibly the worst Masters finals lineup ever?


Much more interesting than O’Sullivan v Hawkins or Perry

Bingham is preferable to Carter, but that ain't saying much.

Unquestionably the worst ever Masters final lineup.

I think it might as well. No reason why these two can't provide a high caliber encounter befitting of a final (no sarcasm intended)

Even with Selby going out I'd rather have seen literally any of the other top 8 players win this thing. Robertson, Ding, Trump, Allen, Higgins, Williams, Wilson. Literally any of them.

Yes this looks a lot more interesting than O'Sullivan being 4-0 up after 4 frames

Well not many believed 2015 world final was a good lineup but it turned out to be one of the best of all time


One-sided drab final.

That’s different, though. It’s a world final. It means everything. This is an overhyped invitational.

And they were the two most promising players in snooker. Tomorrow is a meeting of snooker’s Nigel Farage and some other bloke.

Anyway it's been a thoroughly depressing end to a farce of a tournament. I won't be watching the final tomorrow as I'd rather eat a lightbulb. God speed to those who decide to tune in.
