He is.
Now leave Tennis for the tennis thread.

To me he is.
I'd rather watch Peter Lines.
I'd rather watch two drunk people play snooker in the pub than watch Federer.
Assuming, Federer was playing tennis, obviously.

Here's something I never understood.
If someone played an actual deliberate miss, there would be uproar. The referee would almost call for the death penalty.
If someone misses getting out of a snooker by a millimetre, they call a 'miss', put the cue-ball back numerous times and generally make a big deal out of it.
But, if someone plays a blatant, deliberate in-off, to get the cue ball back to the baulk end - nobody bats an eyelid.

All tournament they’ve not appreciated a lot of good shots. Even comms have, well, commented on it a few times.

So, what should be tomorrow's plan?
Watch snooker in the pub?
Watch at home with some beer?
Fit a pub visit in between matches?
Watch without booze at all?
Considerations.
I did drink five cans last night. Quite a lot for me these days.
I have a bottle of champagne for Friday match.
Not drinking today.
Drank a lot this holiday. BIG DECISIONS!

No they usually put one table on top of the other but this was too problematic for the short players.
