I'm hoping that Brecel wins as I like it when there are different winners.

That last frame.
The ability to get on the next colour... wow just amazing control and skill.

I can't believe he tried that blue. That pink as Ken Doherty showed was on.

Selby's been about as poor as I've ever seen him in the latter stages of a tournament.

He is looking really sloppy though. If he gets it together Brecel will have a wobble imo.

Selby's been about as poor as I've ever seen him in the latter stages of a tournament. Any time he comes across another player who doesn't match his tempo when he tries to slow matches down he struggles, unless he's playing at 95% pot success rate. I think he's having to rely on grinding more and more as he's getting older, and players are finally getting wise to it. |

He's grinding out chances as he usually does in frames and then fucking them. He almost blew it in the semi final against Allen doing the same thing. The Selby that won world titles would be winning this quite handily.

Yes, I invoked the Selby miss and now Brecel has a chance.

It's his to lose now. Selby's going to pull out some horrible snookers I'm sure of it.

Wow, there have been some uncharacteristically poor safety shots by Selby in the last 2 frames. Even I knew he shouldn't go for ones he went for and I'm terrible.

Very well played and deserved.
A century finish to top it all off.

Fully expected this to be over not much after 8 going into that final session. Good that Selby managed to make a match of it and I would lying if I wasn't willing it to go down to the wire, but the right man certainly won in the end.

Really enjoyed the tournament and Brecel deserved to win. Can't wait to see Si winning at some point in the next few years.

Are there any ex-sports people or fading celebrities currently not releasing an "unprecedented access" documentary? They are fucking everywhere.
