Posted November 29, 20177 yr Saw that there wasn't a thread for this. Is anyone going to be watching this when coverage gets under way on Saturday on BBC without John Virgo or Willie Throne commentating Selected First Round Matches Mark Selby v Basem Eltahhan Gary Wilson v Ken Doherty Neil Robertson v Rod Lawler Anthony Hamilton v Lyu Haotian Alan McManus v Robin Hull Stephen Maguire v Yuan Sijun Jack Lisowski v Wang Yuchen Ali Carter v Jimmy White Zhou Yuelong v Peter Lines Mark Allen v Lukas Kleckers Ronnie O'Sullivan v Jackson Page So far Ding has been knocked out to World No 127 Leo Fernandez in the first round. Who do you think will win the tournament?
December 2, 20177 yr Saw that there wasn't a thread for this. Is anyone going to be watching this when coverage gets under way on Saturday on BBC without John Virgo or Willie Throne commentating Why won't they be commentating? Selected First Round Matches Ali Carter v Jimmy White Who do you think will win the tournament? Jimmy 6-2 over Ali - his best result for years? :cheer: Hopefully it'll be Ronnie or Judd who'll win the title.
December 3, 20177 yr Author Willie Throne said apparently last month that he had been axed from BBC's commentary team. As for John Virgo he has had he'll be back for the Masters. Selby out already to Scott Donaldson 6-3, whom had lost 10 first round matches.
December 3, 20177 yr Author I quite like the new BBC graphics. :) Mark Williams getting through the draw quite easily so far. His great form continues.
December 7, 20177 yr Author An superb break of 138 by Ryan Day, that was in the decider against Li Hang. Some of the earlier blacks in that frame were just absolute coolness under pressure. Coming through two 6-5s on the trot probably does wonders for the confidence knowing you can turn it on when it really matters. A great win for Mark King against John Higgins in an decider as well.

December 10, 20177 yr Author Fantastic clearance by Shaun, especially that blue swinging the cue ball round the table. Sets it up nicely for tonight with it at 4-4.

December 11, 20177 yr Author Yes, just went another gear. Shaun must be reeling from the bad luck he had in frames 2,3,5 where he either missed or went in off.
