    Starts at 1pm. Ronnie O Sullivan for the next hour is a flash odds with WH boosting him to 6s from 4s to win the even for an eighth time.

    What a tournament so far. Lisowski was breathtaking v Brecel. Murphy was assured v Zhang. Ronnie O'Sullivan and Ding game was sublime. Ali Carter deservedly beat Williams and earlier on today...match of tournament this far. Trump v Wilson edge of your seat stuff.

    Just watching Robertson v Hawkins. Its a bit of a slow burner but perhaps I've been spoilt.

    I think it’s just the top 16 ranked players so you’re guaranteed top players from the start.
    I think I’m right but shoot me down if not.

    Ding becoming the first ever person to achieve more than one 147 in Masters history is my highlight so far.

    Fantastic. Hawkins has been granite so far tonight. Brilliant in it's own way.

    Been watching Allen v Higgins today and the standard is very poor.
    It’s 3-3 now and I think Allen only has one break over 50 !!

    He feared for his life so was filmed on camera telling people what they wanted to hear. He didn't match fix. He doesn't need to with earning more than nearly any player ever.

    The Chinese players left a constant online trail of fixing things they couldn't get out of, just like Stephen Lee who is one example of someone banned for fixing who isn't Chinese. Hann being another.

    In his post match interview he said that when he plays badly, he often brings his opponent down to his level… he certainly did today.
    This afternoon he played a totally unforced miscue together with some very poor positional plays and then one of his best shots ever.

    The thing is with messrs Robertson and Hawkins, is they are both left handers (like me!). So you've got to cut them some slack a bit!. :oops:

    Shaun Murphy gets under my skin for some reason. Great player but just don't like him. Be disappointed if O'Sullivan loses to him. Would have much preferred Lisowski to progress as I don't mind him.
