too difficult to call i think - the standard is so high and there are quite afew players who are more than capable of winning it. peter ebdon, matthew stevens, ding...
stephen maguire has a sublime game and is playing well these days. john higgins is also playing well and can annihillate anybody. peter ebdon
my favourite player mark williams hits em like nobody else does but he's been in a slump of late however - would be great for him to regain some form.
then you've got the young guns like robertson, jamie cope, ryan day, even ali carter who are all capable.
let's not forget probably the greatest snooker player ever stephen hendry and also ronnie, fresh from having a nosh - will probably be fired up too lol.
impossible to call!!
