2022 World Snooker Championship - 16th April to 2nd May

Matthew Stevens dumped out by Lisowski, forgot to tune in this afternoon to see conclusion after work. Scoreline suggests a fairly close battle, Stevens was such a talent ~20 years ago and so missed his chance at the world title against Mark Williams in 2000.

Damn, Luca was terrible last night. Hope he does better this afternoon and manages a win. But I doubt looking at the score.

Page has gone blind or something. Cant get a single ball in

He's had a brief go at coming back in this match. But I think it's all over now.

I've only seen the last 2 frames but it's fair to say Mark Williams is on it. 7-0. :eek:

Bizarre scenes at the snooker today.

Pigeon stops play and nearly crashes into Selby on its way out.

Shame the audience didn't burst into a chorus of "Stop the pigeon!" I couldn't help myself.

Ronnie’s making light work of Allen

robfosters · 22 Apr 2022 at 20:40

It’s like watching god play snooker sometimes

Looks like it will be up to Stephen Maguire to stop Ronnie next. But in their head-to-head, Ronnie has won 19-4.

If he gets to the final, I will be spewing.

What’s your problem with Ronnie? He’s one of the best things ever to happen for snooker

No doubting his ability and he brings the fans in but he just acts such a prat in interviews which gets on my nerves.

At least he’s got a bit of personality about him. The likes of Robertson, Higgins and Selby are just bland.

Yan Bingtao potted two amazing balls to nick another frame off Shelby. Brilliant stuff.

robfosters · 23 Apr 2022 at 21:10

Selby on the charge now

UTmaniac · 23 Apr 2022 at 22:37

This Selby Yan match is going to finish in the early hours at this rate, so much tactical play this 70min+ frame, they can't pot for toffee.

Could we see our first Chinese champ?

marc2003 · 23 Apr 2022 at 22:58

Haha, **** off Selby.

ic1male · 23 Apr 2022 at 23:16

Jackie boy doing well to keep equal with Robbo. I was expecting 6-2 to Neil.

Every time I look at the BBC page for this championship and see that Selby photo, it so needs a photoshop of proper vampire fangs, in the style of Ray Reardon! :cry:

Feek · 24 Apr 2022 at 17:58

Every year I get frustrated that Higgins is playing.
