Wilson was incredible in that session but nearly threw the last one away. I think he would give Selby a better game, as Murphy's safety isn't quite up to the test. Selby isn't guaranteed to beat Bingham though, and Bingham was the better player today but couldn't get a lead.
This mornings first mini session has been a hard watch. Both players out of sorts and nervy still, Bingham looking the better player but also getting the run. They share the mini session so go in 6-6, if any of them clicks in to get the other one is in trouble.
Both picked up, now Selby is 9-7, play resumes tonight at 8. Selby hit two centuries, Bingham replying with his own, the last one was a tight frame but Selby wins on the colours, shame its now stopped after both players finding a bit of form.
Kyren went 10-4 up making the last couple of frames key, Murphy won them so its not formality. Going into the last session 10-6 Wilson leads Murphy, the match is not dead like it could have been. Halfway and will conclude tomorrow evening, they have a morning session first.
Last night's final frame resembled one of those late night ones down the snooker hall when you are determined to beat your opponent no matter what. Bingham must have been thinking "wtf ?......just give up mate & we can all go home to bed".

Classic Selby really, coming back when you need 6 snookers is not never knowing when to give up, its wasting all our time!

Doesn't happen very often I know but Wilson gave away 53(?) points on a snooker yesterday tbf so it's maybe not as daft as it first seems.

Fair point, Wilson hitting the black 7 times was pretty crazy to be fair! Can’t remember many biggest scores just from getting out of a snooker

Rooting for Bingham, and I half want Murphy to win now after the comeback, but it would be nice to see a first time winner, means more, so still hoping for Wilson to win the whole thing.

for me i hope Wilson goes through but it makes for a good semi final.
Brilliant from Murphy. Rooting for him to win the final.
I'd can see him winning as he generally plays good exciting snooker as well as some very loose snooker .. BUT, I had a few quid on Selby at the start of the tournament .. SOOO it's Selby for me after a very good final. AND Bingham and that twat of a BBC interviewer Walker are out of order suggesting that Selby indulges in gamesmanship (a k a cheating) .. Bingham, you should be better than that and Walker as a commentator is fecking useless

A very poor interview - didn't do Bingham any favours.
Hard to call the final - should be a good watch. Murphy has been potting beautifully but how will he cope with the safety play of Selby?

Selby is obviously a fantastic player but hate how he can drag games out.
