pesky1972 5,222 Posted January 17, 2021 Report Share Posted January 17, 2021 Great bottle from the Chinese. He looks a real star of the future. Gutted for Higgins, he’s been close the last few years but pipped at the post again. Had his chances though. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Greb147 6,809 Posted January 17, 2021 Report Share Posted January 17, 2021 (edited) So what did he say then.... I predict he will win quite a few titles as he's clearly mentally very strong and his style suits those longer matches. Edited January 17, 2021 by Greb147 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Greb147 6,809 Posted January 19, 2021 Report Share Posted January 19, 2021 I see the easily triggered are now having a pop at Stephen Hendry for racial stereotyping after he claimed that when a Chinese player makes a mistake it's like there's been a "system failure."

shaaark 10,721 Posted February 20, 2021 Report Share Posted February 20, 2021 Hey charts, wo's this jordan brown? I can't recall even hearing about him. I can see maguire isn't playing his best, but this jordan brown looks very useful. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I missed today's game, I was making sure I had everything done before O'Sullivans game tonight. I think that this will be Browns first major final, and good luck to him. Theres some very good players in the top 100, but the top 3,4,5, are out on their own. Cheers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm just guessing, mate, as I can't recall seeing him in any of the top 32 or top 64 invitationals, but then again I tend only to watch the games featuring the best players. Cheers.

Yeah I get what you're saying, but I think this last couple of years, the gap between the more well known names and those lower ranked, is closing quite a bit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not sure. There's , in my mind, definitely more very good players in the top 100, than before, but I don't think the gap has closed on the "elite" players. Kyren Wilson and Jack Lisowski seem to be the standouts amongst the "other" players, but aren't consistent enough to be classed as "elite" players. A few of the Chinese guys could make the step up, if they can get over their, to me, inferiority complex when playing the likes of O'Sullivan. The top players aren't getting any younger, so we could do with some youngsters coming through, hopefully with the flair and entertainment, not just the technical ability. Cheers.

You could be right Your money on ronnie today charts? I'd have a few quid on him myself, but he's 8/11 to win, and 11/8 to win in under 13 frames lol.
