Anyone know the scores for Ronnie's match? The live scoring has stopped working for some reason.

There was a bit of an incident when the referee called a miss because he reckoned there was an easier route to escape a snooker, and Ronnie quietly argued his point with the ref for five minutes, whilst taking another couple of attempts. I guess we'll see that on the highlights tonight.

Cheers guys!
I'll never understand the point of the miss rule.

You can see why Ronnie gets so incredibly bored during the post match press conferences in China, just look at today's Pro Tube video of his interview after his match with Xiao.
Understandable, but is it acceptable?

Genius but also a grade A plonker. He could at least sit there for a few minutes and attempt to feign interest. Unacceptable, but unaviodable unfortunately.

Can someone who's good at maths please work out what the total prize fund of the China Open is for me?
(Including the maximum break awards.)

What I can't fathom is why Eurosport have covered the snooker live all week and then there is absolutely nothing when it comes to the final! Seems a bit stupid really

EuroSport ran the final as an Online Pay-Per-View - they only plugged it a few times! A little bit cheeky that! Good win for Ebdon though, it also means 7 different winners in 7 different ranking events this season
