You don't always need the really big names in snooker to be entertained that is for sure. Would love to see Kyren break through and win a big UK based title, We all know he's capable of course with his win in Shanghai and numerous other finals too.

He was the best player of the weekend and deserved to win. I really hope he kicks on from this and wins more events. Really quality player, enjoyed watching him play.

Try telling that to Michael Georgiou. I don't think it should be a ranking event either. Not nice to see is members of the crowd calling out just as the player is just about to take his shot to win the match, a example of that was Tian Pengfei who kept cool when this happened in the blue-ball shootout, a member of the crowd called out when he took his shot. Although it has been a great opportunity for lower ranked players to get vital prize money that they need to try and stay on the tour.

He now meets Ronnie O’Sullivan in what is sure to be a cracker after Ronnie whitewashed Milkins 4-0.
