Snooker World Championship

It's been brilliant. A very high standard. A record number of centuries and the final hasn't even started.

Also not sure what the nationalities have to do with anything. It just happens to be that most of the top 16 are from the UK, so it was always likely to be the case that most players in the WC were from the UK.

I’m just thinking of interest in it in general.

Judd will run away with it.

Hope Trump wins, and that Higgins hasn't got a bet on.

90 centuries. That's just incredible

I normally lose some interest when Ronnie goes out but this years has been excellent.

Put a fiver on this morning for 18-14 to trump at 11 /1. I'll take 3-1 from the first session.

I've got each player to make 4+ centuries at 8/1 so I'm happy with that start! Although I'm hoping for Higgins to win

Tony Foulds a guest of honour at the final. Nice touch.

Neal must be proud

Higgins going strong. He's an absolute machine at the crucible.

I'm not sure I could stand the fawning if Higgins wins

I can imagine they've done something after Wilson's damning rant last night !

According to the commentary they were replaced last night.

I think the standard of break building is just improving
