I do.

The best player on the day.

But in the very small margins of preference I'd go:

1. Wilson - a new champion would be a breath of fresh air IMO.
2. Selby - Legends always make for good champions.
3. Bingham and Murphy - can't separate them really, both one time champs that would have equal humour in overtaking certain other one-time champions.

I don't have any strong feelings against any of them winning though. I have no idea why as my dad is the kind of person who only watches most sports because he wants to see the villain-of-the-day lose, but I seem to have avoided that strand of genes & got my mother's in that chunk of the code.

He is looking strong, very strong. Maybe we'll have a first time WC this year?

Yeah that would be lovely. And just shows his tenacity, to come back straight from your first final last year and come back stronger.

I feel he wouldn't stand much of a chance against Selby, because I can't see him play like he did in this 1st session over 4 sessions in the final against Selby. And that would be the level required to beat him.

Yeah, Selby is definitely favourite, but think Kyren has a really good chance. I've been supporting Kyren since the start, come on Kyren :)

That's nice of you, since he knocked Robbo out.

I also noticed you even wanted Kyren to make the match close against him. Unfortunately for you, he got too close for confort and won.

You've got it all wrong, I don't know who this Robbo you mention is (is that Neil Robertson?) doesn't sound like someone I would support, Kyren is a hard worker, nice bloke, been supporting him this whole championships, wish him well.

could be. They don't have morning sessions for the final or the need for later night highlights programmes so Hazel can cover afternoon and evenings.


Yes, and I think she does some Premier League show at weekends, so Saturday might be out.
