My father in law isn't a snooker fan. But he will tune in for Ronnie or Judd.

Being World number 1 and current World Champion is fantastic for Selby but as Barry Hearn said "giving what the fans want... Entertainment" is not what Selby is about. You can get better than O'Sullivan for entertainment. He puts bums on seats. The non snooker fan knows who he is, but will they know who Selby is?

No ranking tournament should have best of 7 matches. It's mostly a crapshoot. I think a best of 11 minimum should be required for any serious tournament.

It doesn't help that these days he seems to throw a lot of tantrums, is a bad loser and has one of the least appropriate nicknames on the tour. He hasn't been a 'jester' for years, but I suppose the only other thing that rhymes with Leicester is 'molester' so perhaps he's stuck with it.

He is one of the best players the game has ever seen. Come on.
