It's amazing how Lyu has dominated the second half of the match after going behind in both of the first two sessions. What a crucial foul on the pink from Hawkins that could turn out to be... :smile:

yep, I do feel there is a general "dislike" to AC around the tour, don't know why, what or wherefore
re AC: possibly why a few have typed similar here, without being able (or wanting) to point finger on it?

What a XXXX !
Is it me or is Ali Carter liked by his fellow Pro's and snooker Journalists ? I feel that the is something below the surface that we don't know about [ i've heard something mentioned but not going to put it on the Forum ] . Probably just Chinese Whispers anyway

I like his steely determination in both his personal and professional life , so hope all of the above is just a load of hot air !!!

I've just searched through the years and if I didn't miss somebody I think Lyu would become the youngest player to reach the quarterfinals at the World Championship since Ronnie O'Sullivan in 1996.
He is slightly younger than Matthew Stevens, who was also 20 when he got to this stage in 1998.

Kudos to Lyu. At 8-3 I really didn't see him coming back. But he's been playing superb since.

He has no respect for other players (except maybe Higgins, Selby, Hendry, and even them he insulted in the past), his statements contradict themselves more often than not and some things he say are either plain stupid or just provocative - and not only his comments, but also his demeanour is this way often. And I can't stand boorishness.
O'Sullivan mostly reminds me of a petulant child.

The Draw is only completed 48 hours before the start.
