Chang Scratches at 8:8 but the 4 & 8 are tied up. Shane almost hooks himself getting on the 3. Now he is lining up to play the four safe - gets perfect shape to freeze the cueball to the 8. Plays the safety. Cuts off the kicks.
Jay is announcing. Says Chang has almost no chance to hit the four. Chang had to spin the cueball one rail and hits it on the way out. Leaves Shane a TOUGH match shot right here.
Chang hits the four and leaves Shane a shot. Now it all nerves. Shane makes the four and five gets in line for the six - shape on the eight is what's tricky. Gets PERFECT on the eight. Standard draw and IT's over. Shane comes through!!!
Must say Chao played well but Archer made a couple of mistakes, disappointed to see a great player go out but that was always going to happen when 2 champions collide.
because he is going home. Didn't break well, Chao did. Johnny missed some hooks, left windows open, Chao runs out. He seemed to be a little off this trip, not quite on his game.
