Some fantastic snooker in the final frame from the ROCKET to finish off a plucky Gary Wilson 10-7

Ronnie was so pumped. You could see it meant so much to him at the end of the game. I haven't seen passion like that in Ronnie for quite a while. Love watching him when he's in this frame of mind.... ( no pun intended :lol: )

Haven't seen any snooker today 64, been a busy and upsetting day. I did watch the last five frames of the Murphy match yesterday against the 17 year old China man. He was lucky not to win after pulling back to 9 all to then lose the final frame. He's one for the future I reckon

Why is this major tournament from the Crucible only on the red button ?

Surely should be on BBC 2 at the very least

Match of the tournament

Robertson was leading 10-8 with Fu struggling to find his form then all of a sudden he clicked into gear remaining as cool as a cucumber playing some fantastic snooker. So much finesse in his break-building as he won five of the six frames winning 13-11

Come on Fu :-D

Me and Mr Swan have just watched the highlights of this incredible match. I thought Fu had blown it and that Robertson was gonna pot that black and then he missed. I didn't think Fu would pot it....but he did. Good lad! Great advert for the game of snooker....
