@WeAreWST Luca in full flow is mind boggling. You can't help but watch through your fingers but when they keep going in it feels almost magical. It's been a while since he's shown anything like that mind you. Hopefully soon...

@thesnookerhall @evans_reanne She will have had some tips from Shaun Murphy 😉

[Gilles Benz @Benzo147]

@totalsnookered Why? You may as well outlaw titanium ferrules or anything different. People have played like that for decades, kicks (if they occur) just add to the drama

[Gilles Benz @Benzo147]

@pistol147 I'll go for 79.
All the best on Saturday 👍🏻

@kendoherty1997 @WeAreWST Good old trusty Milton Keynes (aka the home of pandemic snooker). But tomorrow I'll be watching from the front seats in the arena 🎉

@fouldsy147 It would be fitting to have the WC in China during the 2-year hiatus. China is now one of the most important contributors on the tour. With Xintong having become WC as well, probably fair

[Gilles Benz @Benzo147]

@WeAreWST @SheffCouncil I think I speak for most when I say we're all very relieved! Long may we enjoy this unique venue and setting in a city that loves its snooker! It was the right choice, but that doesn't mean it was easy. Thanks everyone behind the scenes who contributed to making it happen! 👏🏻

@fouldsy147 I sometimes question myself waking up at 5:30am to watch snooker... not today though. What a start of a match! ❤️

[Gilles Benz @Benzo147]

@Nick_Metcalfe I don't agree with that. Ronnie is being asked left right and centre to do things. With time being limited, you have to make choices. And money helps prioritising. Wouldn't you prioritise to write for a more lucrative outlet if your time was more limited? Why would you not?

@philhaigh_ He's got a spider as a hand

[Gilles Benz @Benzo147]

@WeAreWST @JohnstonesUK I'm sure Stephen Hendry would not approve 😁

[Gilles Benz @Benzo147]

Peter Ebdon in 2006... I wouldn't have thought that to be honest 🤔

[Gilles Benz @Benzo147]

@totalsnookered Who is the last winner of a UK Championship title that is not a seed in this year's edition? I'll need to look it up...

[Gilles Benz @Benzo147]

@announcerphil That looks like an awesome day. Enjoy it sir!

@VeryBlandPeter 🤣🤣🤣

[Vic Snooker Academy @Vics_Snooker]

A few hours after his defeat in the International Championship Ronnie O’Sullivan spent some time with the youngest player on tour, 14 year old Michał Szubarczyk from Poland.

Some valuable advice from the greatest player of all time 🤩🤩🤩

[Gilles Benz @Benzo147]

@Vics_Snooker I don't care what anyone says, the man is class!

[Gilles Benz @Benzo147]

@WeAreWST How is this even a question, honestly 🤦🏻‍♂️

[Gilles Benz @Benzo147]

@DtBonar @philhaigh_ Agreed, Ken is a likable character but as a commentator and pundit he's a cut below the rest I'm afraid

[Gilles Benz @Benzo147]

@WeAreWST @BetVictor Thanks Luca, that whole tournament was so much fun! What a way to do it. It may never happen again, but wow it was amazing!
