HIGGINS 1-1 FORD (13-0)

There's mither here for Tom, as he misses a long red to the base left by such a distance in the third that both it and white land in the D for a tap-in for John. It's a possibility, however with not very numerous accessible reds the pack will require a slam without further ado.

SELBY BEATS HAWKINS AT WORLD GRAND PRIX

23 MINUTES AGO

It needs the guide of the multitude of augmentations for John to drop in outline ball red, however he loses position on the dark somewhat and misses it to the left center. Tom plays on, two snookers required, yet misses a basic red to the base left. John dispatches it and we're done in outline two.

HIGGINS 0-1 FORD (51-0)

John is presently playing like a man who's arrived at four finals this season. He travels to 50 years, and with three reds in the totally open he ought to have this one cleaned up honk sweet.

Elsewhere in the world Stuart Bingham is through, beating Ricky Walden in a decider with a break of 124.

HIGGINS 0-1 FORD (16-0)

A magnificent wellbeing from John, white behind the yellow, leaves Tom with no choice except for to attempt to pot the main red he can see. It goes close yet jaws out of the base left, and John is left with a simple starter. That goes, and John then, at that point, recuperates position later a free shot off the pink with a definitive pot on a red to the left center. Presently he's in charge.

HIGGINS 0-1 FORD

Tom mops up the parcel for a 75 to take the principal outline.


HIGGINS 0-0 FORD (4-48)

Here is an opportunity for John, as Tom misses a red to the right center and sends the white straight into that pocket all things being equal. From the D he attempts a long red to base left yet signs across it seriously and misses it, returning Tom to with a straight red to right center. This ought to be end of casing, as there are bunches of reds open and all high worth tones are accessible.

HIGGINS 0-0 FORD (0-35)

Tom runs out of position on 35 and turns down an uncertain blue to save his lead, putting the broon protected simultaneously.

HIGGINS 0-0 FORD (0-20)

Somehow or another, helpless old John is the visit's structure player - he's made four finals this term - issue is, he's likewise lost four finals, and you can be sure that will be nausing him up something furious. Yet, it additionally implies he's in staggering scratch ... yet, it's Tom in first with a fine red. He can't make a big deal about it however, running out of position on 12, so a wellbeing trade doth follow ...until Tom tracks down a colossal pot to right center! The manner in which the balls are, this is an extremely decent freedom.

AROUND THE TABLE

Ricky Walden 2-3 Stuart Bingham

MARK SELBY BEATS BARRY HAWKINS 4-1!

He's simply so difficult to get one over on, up there with the hardest rivals in all game. He meets Mark Allen or Cao Yupeng next.

SELBY 3-1 HAWKINS (58-1)

Goodness man, Mark is so ... Mark. Thirty focuses to the upside, he winds up in a tight spot, and essentially every other top player attempts to pot right out of it, even more so a casing from cycle two. Not our Selbz. He plays safe and shonuff evokes the foul, declines the set back and is presently once again at the table preparing balls. Bazza's played alright today, however Mark has rebuffed his mistakes with standard heartlessness.

SELBY 3-1 HAWKINS (12-1)

Gracious Baz! Once more, he gets a starter, then, at that point, misses a simple green reasoning too hard about getting back up the table. That hands Mark a chance, and however he's not playing so well you accept he'll make a matchwinning commitment, he's more than able. At the point when he swings the white around three pads, he ends up close to the top, yet a slice back red to a visually impaired pocket lands in him on the blue, and he's looking considerably more such as himself now.

SELBY 3-1 HAWKINS

Mark is not terrible, but not great either great at doing barely enough, and he's a casing away regardless of having played not even close to his best.

SELBY 2-1 HAWKINS (64-9)

Mark makes a mistake on 54, and the casing actually looks as great as his on the grounds that the reds aren't well found. Barry, however, plays several decent shots so that he's ready to cannon two of three reds on the top pad ... just to disregard the pot, jawsing the dark. He'll currently need to win three straight, or he's off hame.

SELBY 2-1 HAWKINS (34-0)

Mark gets in and out, red, brown and done, and with the dark and two reds snugglds by left corner, we may be here some time ... or then again not. Mark tracks down a course through, and however the dark breezes up on the green spot, this is on the grounds that the pink is in its gaff, making this is presently a great opportunity for 3-1.

AROUND THE TABLE

Ricky Walden 1-3 Stuart Bingham

SELBY 2-1 HAWKINS

A 53 seals the casing, and Mark leads again.

SELBY 1-1 HAWKINS (53-15)

Mark doesn't delve into the white as he really wants to while preparing a red, so on 52 that is end of break. He plays to the recoil pad, however a helpless wellbeing from Barry gives him one more opportunity ... furthermore he misses a long one to left corner by a distance. So Barry, disappears a starter to left center, then, at that point, an interesting dark inverse. Yet, a terrifying shot on the yellow sees it shoot up the table, splatter the bunch of reds that was keeping him in the edge, and that will be the finish of that.

SELBY 1-1 HAWKINS (23-0)

More security to start the casing, and this time it's Mark in first as, in analysis, Philip Studd takes note of that the most noteworthy break up to this point is a regal 28 .. right as position is lost on 14. Barry then, at that point, has a go at one and, in comms, Joe Perry figures that assuming he draws near, he ought to get the white safe. Yet, he doesn't get the association he's subsequent to, leaving the red with the signal ball beneath the shy away line. The reds are on the whole on the right of the table, however different are hindering different, so Mark should be cautious in picking a course through them. I daresay he will be.

AROUND THE TABLE

Ricky Walden 1-2 Stuart Bingham

SELBY 1-1 HAWKINS

All around good done Barry Hawkins.

SELBY 1-0 HAWKINS (0-79)

Mark leaves a simple red, Barry sees it away, and this is a great reaction to the wretchedness he caused upon himself not 15 minutes prior.

SELBY 1-0 HAWKINS (0-54)

Be that as it may, on 54 he ends up confronted with a troublesome red to left corner, signaling over another red while attempting to produce a point. In that capacity, he takes on the pot in light of wellbeing, missing it by bounty - however passing on the white near the recoil pad.

SELBY 1-0 HAWKINS (0-22)

In any case, Mark passes on a tight clasp to right corner and Bazza channels it well; abruptly, things open up a bit, and it appears as though recovery will be quick.

SELBY 1-0 HAWKINS (0-0)

As of now, this edge seems as though another long work, the reds open yet impeding one another and the norm of security play high.

AROUND THE TABLE

Ricky Walden 1-1 Stuart Bingham

SELBY 1-0 HAWKINS

Urgh, Barry will require a second, and perhaps a pail. I bet mark has some time off to leave him stewing, later a 48-minuter that he threw in a skip.

SELBY 0-0 HAWKINS (73-68)

Once more, it's Mark who yields the primary possibility, leaving a long blue, and Barry should take this on. He slides home a wonder to left corner and check out the position he gets on the pink! It's an ideal corner to corner into a similar pocket, yet some way or another he misses it! That was such a great deal simpler than the ball he pruned, and he will feel extremely ineffectively when Mark rebuffs him. Down puts in any amount of work, the dark is a tap to center away! This game!

SELBY 0-0 HAWKINS (67-63)

It's a genuine mindbender this casing, two top players attempting to trip each other up with immaculate calculation. Yellow is presently back in play, and green isn't a long way from it's own pocket, yet blue is as an afterthought and Bazza will require it. He plays a truly pleasant yellow, gets normal situation on the green, and has a respectable point to get behind the blue ... be that as it may, doesn't overcome adequately much, and he won't attempt to stick in behind to impel it along the rail. A horrible shot from Mark then, at that point, looks prone to leave it, yet it lands tight to piece of pad not long before the knuckle, and when it winds up adhered to the dark in the blink of an eye a while later, we're no closer goal. This is the most arresting strategic fight I've found on schedule.

SELBY 0-0 HAWKINS (67-44)

Barry is doing great matching Mark's wellbeing, however he can't do much with regards to the tones that are advancing towards the pads - right now, it's yellow and green, yet apparently others will follow. Or on the other hand not! Mark leaves a red on the base pad and the place of the white permits it to be stroked home from behind, and the casing is currently yet to be determined!

SELBY 0-0 HAWKINS (63-37)

Mark then, at that point, aggregates a run which takes him to inside a point, directs the wellbeing trade that follows, then, at that point, cuts home a long plant from center to right corner and will fancy himself to win the edge or draw near at this visit. Bazza has a respectable expectation however - there's a red punkt in dark cush that Mark need - and a less then splendid positional shot powers him to address it with another still on the table, and in ordinary style he plays safe.

SELBY 0-0 HAWKINS (4-37)

You really want to settle rapidly in these best of sevens, and Mark hasn't yet. A helpless wellbeing passes on Barry a shot to nothing, which he makes, and Mark gets back to the table wrapped up close behind the green. It takes three endeavors to evade, transporting eight focuses therefore, however Barry hands four s
