    I think Si Jiahui’s lack of experience is showing to lose 9 frames in a row and be 14-14 after leading 14-5

    Totally. Think either the magnitude of the event or mental fatigue. One or the other. He's been outstanding.

    Gutted for the lad... But boy he did well. Was really hoping that went to a deciding frame.

    That last red along the cushion was pure madness. He was only 4 points behind and could have played safe to stay in the frame and match. Can’t deny Brecel is quite brilliant with his potting angles but Si should never have given the opportunity to him in the first place. I tweeted yesterday that at 14-5 up he only needed to play the percentages as Brecel had to force the match, sadly for him he didn’t

    I was willing that red in for him when he decided to give it a crack. Still, got plenty of experience from that.

    Watching Selby v Allen is like being in a different universe. The pair of them are sucking the joy out of the occasion like a black hole

    Enjoyed the rock n roll snooker from the other semi, but this is pretty intense.

    Finally got around to watching the sprint stuff. I'm still utterly convinced we need to scarp this ****.

    One I don't have time for F1 to dominate my weekend, and two, if you have a period of dominance (as we have had for many years), you're just making the likelihood of the championship being sewn up well before the end of the season more inevitable . Please just scrap this bs.

    Can't disagree with that. And the season and likely next at the very minimum.

    The combination of Max and RBR right now is unstoppable, in a similar manner to Hamilton and Merc.

    Fair play to them, they have the winning combo.

    I would mind that less if it was possible to like them or be happy for their success.

    Given the 8km/h slipstream effect here, it begs the question why even have DRS when it makes it that easy.

    It’s horrendously easy and there’s no defending on show.
