Luca Brecel 5 V 4 Shaun Murphy.

I watched this thinking am I really seeing this 17 year old kid from Belgium out wit a former World Champion in the safety duel and Shaun's like a boxer on the ropes taking a beating and baffled as to get out of it and all Luca had to do was sink the pink for the win but he missed and Shaun took the frame.

Luca Brecel 5 V 5 Shaun Murphy.

Final frame and it's the final round seconds out and Luca's got Shaun in the corner and it's looking odds on for a Luca win by K.O or at least a points decision and all Luca has to do is to sink the pink but he missed and somehow Shaun Murphy wins 6-5.

If you ask me anything there is a dodgy pink ball at this years UK Championships and at 17 years of age young Luca is a future World Champion prospect.;):smile::thumbup:

What was dodgy, Church, is the way Luca played the brown to the blue...
....and then misplayed the blue,IMO........snooker players are reluctant to spin,
And that cost him....the pink was awkward.

Hope you are well.....pt

Won more money this week than his previous tournaments total

In his match against Walden, there were some safety battles. Luca was hitting swerve shots accurately and more nonchalantly than anyone on the tour.

Shaun Murphy 9 V 8 Ali Carter

Seeing is believing.That was some come back from Shaun as both players looked 'In The Zone'.Wonder if Ali regrets not taking on that black now when he was up 8-4 but what must young Luca be thinking right now as he had Shaun beat in the quarters.;):smile::grin-square:
 
Mark Selby 6 V 2 Mark Davis

This time it's 1/50 Mark Selby and 12/1 Mark Davis :

They go 12/1 for a final frame decider but that looks unlikely after the way Mark Davis played earlier and I think he will be lucky if he can add 3 frames to his total of 2 but stranger things have happen at this years UK Championships.:wink::grin-square:
 
Mark Selby 8 V 4 Mark Davis

at one point Selby was 1/1000 and Davis was 100/1 but it's down to 1/100Selby and Davis 16/1 :

Had to laugh at the three dudes in the crowd with the t-shirt message that said What's your highest break Hazel ? and Has anybody seen Ronnie on the back.:grin-square:
