Fu started like a train against the Hawk, 3-0 already. I did worry how much that epic win would have taken out of Hawkins and whether he's got anything left in the tank playing again so soon after.

Tonight is a write off, Hawk will probably already be out and I think Higgins will run away with it from here. Hoping for better in the Semi's from tomorrow.
Just hoping that a good night's rest will have the Hawk recovered from his jaded efforts yesterday and back at his sharp-shooting, long-potting best this afternoon.
Wow... The Hawk has just fluked a red from the break! I can't remember seeing that before??
He's 9-1 down so he needs all the luck he can get
Fu might not play a shot in this frame... except Hawkins is all over the place with his position... so probably not.

Pity... out of position 3 times in a break of 20. Hard to believe he beat Ronny in the last round. Looks like a club player.

The Hawk NINE frames to ONE down.
How did O'Sullivan manage to lose to him? Something dodgy there. He's so bad that he managed to fluke a red off the break off. I don't think that's ever happened in the history of snooker.

3 in a row from the Hawk... not impressive snooker from either player... but it is now 9-4

Cue Man Fu set for decisive 11-5 into tonight - but misses a sitter.
A lifeline for The Hawk.

Big day for Ding Junhui and Alan McManus - two sessions; this morning and tonight.
Ding leads 6-2 but I'm rooting for the Glaswegian. I've never met a nicer person. What a fairytale it would be at the age of 45 to become world champion.

Alan McManus seems to have a massive bogey in one nostril.
I'm childish so this recent edit of Mark Selby's wikipedia page amuses me...

Great win for Selby, and what a night for the city of Leicester. World Snooker Champion and Premier League champions within 13 minutes of each other.
They'll make it into a film one day.
