Welsh Open match discussion

Thanks Alex, it should be a a good match.

The way Murphy has been playing this week might spark Ronnie into some form.

[Alex0paul]

No there have been previous meetings. I would guess 4/5 matches?

Only 2

Premier League 2005 O'Sullivan 5-1 Murphy
Grand Prix 2007 O'Sullivan 6-5 Murphy

[dantuck_7]

is this the first time Ronnie vs Murphy?

Plenty of height and muscle on show

People will be asking questions soon

I know Ronnie enjoys the presence of the lovely Ms Tabb. Plenty of height and muscle on show with Hendry, Selby and Jan in the same room too

How many overall finals has he reached? I know Davis has the century

[Alex0paul]

It will be Hendry's 80th, yes 80th, ranking semi final of his career. Amazing but it I can't see him reaching the ton.

[missneworleans]

Haha it's third time so he have to miss!

[Alex0paul]

I think I heard the MC say before the Murphy match tonight that tomorrow first semifinal will be Hendry vs Selby, so Ronnie vs Murphy semi should be evening one...

Darn it. Looks like I will be missing it.
Murphy has a 100% success record in one session evening semi finals:
2006 Welsh Open 6-1 v Barry Hawkins
2008 Malta Cup 6-5 v Ding Junhui

Any ideas of tomorrows scheduale? Surely its about time Murphy had an afternoon match rather than an evening like he has throughout this event.

[Nugget]

In the interview Murphy said O'Sullivan is the best player in the world!

Didn't expect that...

Should be a good match tomorrow!

Can it be the match duration was 1:09?
Quick match that was.

Yes it was ! The Dutch commentator told this as well.
