:00:10. > :00:17.Welcome back to the Crucible Theatre. The deciding session of the

:00:18. > :00:22.semifinal between Alan McManus of Scotland, the oldest man at the

:00:23. > :00:26.Crucible this year, 45. And Ding Junhui from China, he has been

:00:27. > :00:29.coming here for ten years and this is his second semifinal, and he is

:00:30. > :00:37.trying to become the first player from Asia to make it through. The

:00:38. > :00:41.winner will go through to tomorrow's final, and this has been an intense

:00:42. > :00:42.battle so far. We're going to hand you over to Dennis Taylor and

:00:43. > :01:03.Stephen Hendry, for the 27th frame. For those viewers who have switched

:01:04. > :01:07.over, you have not missed anything. Will Alan be tempted? This is a half

:01:08. > :01:32.chance. Great cueing from Alan.

:01:33. > :01:35.It is the type of shot he has been knocking in through this year's

:01:36. > :01:43.Betfred World Championships. He has been a revelation. After 23 years he

:01:44. > :01:56.is in the semifinal, amazing. Something slightly disturbed him. He

:01:57. > :02:01.got up, something in his line of sight, got back down again. He did

:02:02. > :02:06.all the right things. After the cracking Long red. Just over cutting

:02:07. > :02:25.the black. That is a good shot from Ding

:02:26. > :02:33.Junhui. If he can get into that pack, he has a good angle, Alan

:02:34. > :02:41.shaking his head, he knows if he plays this shot correctly, he can

:02:42. > :02:48.open up quite a few reds. That will do nicely, unless... I think he is

:02:49. > :02:58.OK, the red coming off the cushion, I thought it would cover things. You

:02:59. > :03:02.can tell with Ding if he's on a shot, he gets the cue ball cleaned.

:03:03. > :03:14.Would not do that if he was doing the safety. Ding Junhui had to hit

:03:15. > :03:25.that from the left-hand side of the bunch.

:03:26. > :03:36.No breaks today so far. From Ding Junhui. Is this when he will step up

:03:37. > :03:52.a gear? Winning the frame in one visit. As you well know, Stephen, he

:03:53. > :03:55.has done this sometimes, he will want to watch the other gladiators

:03:56. > :04:01.battle it out, winning this one early. Watch Marco Fu and Mark

:04:02. > :04:55.Selby. He can relax if he wins this match, that is.

:04:56. > :05:10.A lot of left-hand side check check on the cue ball. He wants to avoid

:05:11. > :05:23.this red and he wanted to miss that one. Today not complete control of

:05:24. > :05:32.the cue ball. Worth taking this one on, will not leave anything apart

:05:33. > :05:41.from the red he's taking on. He could screw that, the think may be

:05:42. > :05:50.available. -- pink. Looks good to me, right in the centre of the

:05:51. > :05:57.pocket. He seems to have got his focus back. It has been a feature of

:05:58. > :06:01.Ding's clay in this championship, whenever he has lost the frame he

:06:02. > :06:04.should not have, comes right back in next frame, more often than not,

:06:05. > :06:31.with a break. That is a great sign. He is stuck on that red. Looking to

:06:32. > :06:40.see if that red would go it is so difficult. We are on this side of

:06:41. > :06:49.it, he's on the other side of it is not he can play up for the blue.

:06:50. > :07:04.Years away, couple of shots ahead. He would love to take that one.

:07:05. > :07:17.The outsider one his playing, cutting. Terrific. -- the outside

:07:18. > :07:20.one he is playing. I say terrific, not only for the pot, but what he

:07:21. > :07:39.did with the cue ball. Coming up a little bit short. Did

:07:40. > :07:50.not want to risk snickering himself with the

:07:51. > :08:02.pink. He found a gap tween the yellow and brown, claimed that one

:08:03. > :08:15.to perfection. -- between. Another tricky little shot to negotiate.

:08:16. > :08:23.That is just about perfect. Going past the line. Say just about

:08:24. > :08:29.perfect, he has a slight angle, as we show you there. The correct side

:08:30. > :08:32.of the blue line. He may have to come off the side cushion with top

:08:33. > :08:40.spin, because they'll look to be covering each other. Close to a

:08:41. > :08:47.plant. He would be OK. Let's see how he plays this. Top spin. There may

:08:48. > :08:59.be one available here. Is the plant on? It must be. That is a bonus. Get

:09:00. > :09:03.set plant. He can screw the cue ball of the other five reds. Could be a

:09:04. > :09:08.frame-winning shot, if this turns out right. Screw back for the pink,

:09:09. > :09:35.or the blue. And tell you what, that jumped. Igor

:09:36. > :09:47.Anic amend this kick, did not affect the plant. Just have a look rest.

:09:48. > :09:50.The first red tried to jump over the other one. That is how bad it was.

:09:51. > :10:14.But everything is OK. You'd have to say, the way the balls

:10:15. > :10:17.are situated, odds-on for his seventh century of the match. So

:10:18. > :10:43.much scoring by Ding Junhui. Very impressive the ladies come out

:10:44. > :10:48.after the last frame, while he was not expected to pinch, because he

:10:49. > :10:51.needed a sneaker. He got himself back into it, would have been

:10:52. > :10:56.disappointed to lose. Great focus, coming back in this frame. Sign of a

:10:57. > :11:06.great champion that is, that is for sure. You would have to give Terry

:11:07. > :11:12.Griffiths a pat on the back. There was a couple of times in the first

:11:13. > :11:20.round when he lost the frame, his opponent needed a couple of

:11:21. > :11:23.sneakers, and he came back winning frames in a row. Maybe Terry is

:11:24. > :11:55.helping him mature as a player. Every chance Ding Junhui can make a

:11:56. > :11:58.seventh century in this match. That will be the most by any player in a

:11:59. > :12:06.match of the Crucible. The record number of centuries was 16. That was

:12:07. > :12:26.achieved for the gentleman sitting next to me. Stephen Hendrie. John

:12:27. > :12:30.Higgins at 14. If it keeps going like this, get into the final,

:12:31. > :12:43.playing the same way, every chance he could be fattened two matches.

:12:44. > :12:54.As you said, Stephen, so impressive. After an almost 50 minute frame. All

:12:55. > :13:05.the tactical play. Coming out, one chance, taking it. In style, it has

:13:06. > :13:18.to be said. Another superb century break from this Chinese sensation.

:13:19. > :13:23.One more frame to be played before the myths that interval. If Ding

:13:24. > :13:53.Junhui takes it, he is in the final. Absolutely superb. The only needed

:13:54. > :13:57.one chance, and didn't he take it. Winning the frame with another

:13:58. > :14:04.magnificent century break. Now just one frame away from a place in his

:14:05. > :14:11.first-ever final at the Crucible. STUDIO: That is his seventh of the

:14:12. > :14:16.semifinal. A record no one has ever made, nobody making seven centuries

:14:17. > :14:21.in a single match at the Crucible. He keeps going on and on, how

:14:22. > :14:25.impressive is this from Ding Junhui? Particularly in the manner he lost

:14:26. > :14:29.the previous frame. Time and again he has come back after losing a

:14:30. > :14:34.frame. His composure has been very sound. Showing again there. Seven

:14:35. > :14:39.centuries in a match of the Crucible, incredible feat.

:14:40. > :14:44.Extraordinary from him. The quality of the match we are seeing, now

:14:45. > :14:49.beginning to get away from Alan McManus. One away, Ding Junhui? The

:14:50. > :14:54.writing is on the wall, to some degree. Alan McManus has produced a

:14:55. > :15:00.rearguard action of monumental proportions. He is up against the

:15:01. > :15:04.machine. We thought the machine has broken, dropping out of the top 16.

:15:05. > :15:10.It looks worrying for Ding Junhui. A couple of years back the won five

:15:11. > :15:17.ranking events, astonishing in today's's game. He has got the spark

:15:18. > :15:19.back. However he has gone about it. Changing his attitude by working

:15:20. > :15:26.with Terry Griffiths. Something has changed. Looking more relaxed around

:15:27. > :15:31.the Crucible, happy to be at the Crucible. In previous years, he said

:15:32. > :15:36.he did not like the venue. He got those thoughts out of his mind. Much

:15:37. > :15:41.more relaxed with the crowd at the Crucible Theatre. He looks the most

:15:42. > :15:47.comfortable of the four players left in the event. Certainly looks the

:15:48. > :15:52.most dangerous, in scoring brilliant over the last two days.

:15:53. > :16:00.Congratulations Ding Junhui. That record will take some beating. One

:16:01. > :16:05.away from a place in the final. COMMENTATOR: Some records, Hazel. I

:16:06. > :16:09.suppose he would give up a record for a place in his first-ever

:16:10. > :16:15.Crucible final. Records are there to be broken. Stephen Hendrie, next to

:16:16. > :16:20.me, held most of those. Ronnie O'Sullivan breaking a lot of those.

:16:21. > :16:29.Ding has his own little piece of history now. Meanwhile, Alan McManus

:16:30. > :16:35.needs this frame, to take us to a myths ash and interval. -- take us

:16:36. > :16:53.to a myths session interval. And keep the fairy tale life. -- alive.

:16:54. > :17:17.What a pot that was. Will he take the green on? Almost in the jaws in

:17:18. > :17:21.the pocket. Looks like we'll take the green on. Not guaranteed to be

:17:22. > :17:40.on a red here. We could do without that from the

:17:41. > :17:55.crowd. Some individual shouting out. That will not help Ding Junhui.

:17:56. > :18:02.I mean, the green was a tough shot, only that red to play on, because

:18:03. > :18:08.the black was not available. Thinking so positively, thinking if

:18:09. > :18:16.I can get on one red, I can get down to the blue, because the pink and

:18:17. > :18:22.black are out of commission. He has a chance, but difficult. Came out to

:18:23. > :18:28.see the angle on this red, to cushion that, and flick it away from

:18:29. > :18:38.the flat. Right-hand side, one of these reds. The ones closest to the

:18:39. > :18:44.black. Looks like the natural angle. This was Allen, earlier, shoving

:18:45. > :19:08.determination and grit. Will he get another chance?

:19:09. > :19:19.Could have done with that red being a bit further to the side. A bit

:19:20. > :19:29.close to the black. This is a blind pocket.

:19:30. > :19:43.Well-controlled, really was. He just plays all the right shots. That last

:19:44. > :19:48.shot bringing three or four reds into play. Only went gently into the

:19:49. > :19:56.pack, you don't have to smash into them. Ding Junhui looking for that

:19:57. > :20:26.magic number 69, taking him into his first ever final.

:20:27. > :20:42.He had to pinch a little bit of pocket, to keep the cue ball under

:20:43. > :20:49.control. Alan McManus thinking, am I going to get another shot in this

:20:50. > :20:58.World Championship? That is a tricky little spotting of the pink. He had

:20:59. > :21:30.to get it directly behind the spot. In a straight line.

:21:31. > :21:43.Lovely little shots, lots of right-hand side. Often cushion, this

:21:44. > :21:48.into the right centre. They think the two reds to the right of the

:21:49. > :21:54.bunch of faith available to the left corner pocket. A touch of left-hand

:21:55. > :22:00.side often cushion. To play for those. He has the angle to go into

:22:01. > :22:18.the bunch, if he chooses. It is a big target.

:22:19. > :22:28.Just did not get enough side on the cue ball. That will annoy him. Just

:22:29. > :22:34.the pace, he did give the side on it, but did not hit it hard enough,

:22:35. > :22:39.and the side disappeared, just catching the red. He will have to

:22:40. > :22:46.wait for another chance stop nice 41 point advantage, had he dropped on

:22:47. > :22:56.those two reds, the have the chance to clinch the semifinal. -- he had

:22:57. > :23:11.the chance. Can he pot this? You might be able to. No. The white is

:23:12. > :23:22.close, hitting the same jaw the red this. Getting to the stage, as we

:23:23. > :23:25.show you this attempted pot, getting to the stage for Alan McManus, he

:23:26. > :23:45.cannot really make another mistake. Is a long way off the pot. The brown

:23:46. > :23:54.might come to his rescue. I think it has. That red will not pass the

:23:55. > :24:02.brown. I don't think there is one available into the right corner.

:24:03. > :24:21.Tricky little cut back into the left corner, looking at. Looks good.

:24:22. > :24:39.He is so close to his first-ever World Championship final.

:24:40. > :24:47.This is a big shot, taking on. Pot the blue, cannon onto those two

:24:48. > :25:06.reds, to the right of the bunch. 47 ahead, this one along the

:25:07. > :25:14.cushion, he would have two punch it out, to get on the black. If he pots

:25:15. > :25:22.the red, getting onto the black, you would have to say, he is in the

:25:23. > :25:40.final. Alan knows this could be the last throw of the dice.

:25:41. > :25:53.So close to being an incredible shot. Terrific pot. Just needed to

:25:54. > :25:58.find that gap. I think he thought when the red went in, he was going

:25:59. > :26:11.to be on the black. This is a thin cut. Has he got away with it?

:26:12. > :26:19.Leaving a possible chance for Alan McManus? He has.

:26:20. > :26:27.Well, he has been unbelievable through this year's Betfred World

:26:28. > :26:31.Championship. Is there anything left in the tank? From this very likeable

:26:32. > :26:51.Scot. I think he's going to go into the

:26:52. > :27:04.bunch of five reds here. We will see how his lackeys. It is not good.

:27:05. > :27:10.That is incredible. -- how his luck is. Incredible, you could stand

:27:11. > :27:21.their play that shot another ten times, nine of them you would finish

:27:22. > :27:26.amongst the reds. It was as if he got a little trace of right-hand

:27:27. > :27:33.side. Now he's faced with a very tough cut into the right corner.

:27:34. > :27:48.He's having to use it with the extension on his cue, and the rest.

:27:49. > :28:01.Ding will know if this one is in the four Alan because he is right behind

:28:02. > :28:07.the shot. He's doing a lot of sighing, trying to stretch across

:28:08. > :28:11.the table. Surveying the scene, and how the remaining balls are sitting.

:28:12. > :28:16.They are all good, with the exception of the one on the cushion,

:28:17. > :28:21.which is a bit of insurance for Ding Junhui. More importantly, for Alan

:28:22. > :28:31.McManus, a tough shot, he's faced with fear. -- faced with here. No, a

:28:32. > :28:50.long way out. I think this red cuts and if it does, that would be Alan

:28:51. > :28:57.McManus' last shot in this year's World Championship. I don't think

:28:58. > :28:59.evil can in the red near the cushion. If you did, would not

:29:00. > :29:09.matter. All about the pot here. Where is the cue ball going to

:29:10. > :29:35.finish? Looks pretty good to me. One good positional shot here, cue

:29:36. > :29:44.ball between green and brown, with a touch of right-hand side, to come

:29:45. > :30:04.off the baulk cushion, to get the red.

:30:05. > :30:41.I don't drop this with. This is, he will not be on the black.

:30:42. > :30:53.He urged that into the pocket, now that has dropped, books like John we

:30:54. > :31:03.is in his first final. What a bonus to pot the two reds. He's just so

:31:04. > :31:09.delighted and desperate to get over the winning line.

:31:10. > :31:18.But Alan McManus has been a sensation in this year's World

:31:19. > :31:21.Championship, he really has. It's all over for him now, but to get

:31:22. > :31:29.back to the one-table situation and a semifinal for the first time in 23

:31:30. > :31:32.years was unbelievable, and some of the snooker was unbelievable, and it

:31:33. > :31:40.is great to see the 45-year-old back.

:31:41. > :31:46.It is a great feeling as you walk round the table, and you know you

:31:47. > :31:52.are in your first-ever World Championship final. And who is to

:31:53. > :31:57.say that he's not going to be the first Chinese player to lift a

:31:58. > :32:08.trophy? He has given himself a terrific chance this year. It does

:32:09. > :32:18.not matter about the red. Alan was thinking about it, he is coming

:32:19. > :32:21.forward. Ding Junhui, a record-breaking seven centuries, and

:32:22. > :32:29.he gets himself into his first-ever final. A standing ovation from the

:32:30. > :32:31.Crucible crowd. Ding Junhui, in the end it was quite comfortable. He

:32:32. > :32:54.takes the semifinal 17-11. A standing ovation richly deserved

:32:55. > :33:03.for Ding Junhui and Alan McManus, it has been an absolutely breathtaking

:33:04. > :33:06.semifinal. Ten centuries in the semifinal, seven of them for Ding

:33:07. > :33:11.Junhui. He is now chasing Stephen Hendry's total of 16 in a single

:33:12. > :33:18.championship, he is sitting on 12. We have came and Steve Kier.

:33:19. > :33:30.Described the level of play that we have seen. -- Ken and Steve. The

:33:31. > :33:43.quality of snooker in that semifinal, for both players, but

:33:44. > :33:47.particularly Ding for the centuries. A fantastic performance. And of the

:33:48. > :33:51.players who remain in this championship, he is by far the most

:33:52. > :33:56.fluent, and he looks the best in stroke. Yes, and he is the most

:33:57. > :34:01.clinical out there. He is very efficient at the best of times, but

:34:02. > :34:07.to be able to do it on the big stage of all -- biggest stage of all, it

:34:08. > :34:12.looks as if he has come of age. There is one more match to go, and

:34:13. > :34:19.it is a big challenge, the biggest mountain to climb. But I think he

:34:20. > :34:23.has proved to himself that he has gone that extra mile. And he has

:34:24. > :34:27.gone further than anyone has gone from his part of the world, from

:34:28. > :34:34.China and from Asia. Let us hear from Ding Junhui.

:34:35. > :34:39.Congratulations, you have made history, not just with the number of

:34:40. > :34:43.centuries, you at your the first Asian player, the first Chinese

:34:44. > :34:53.player into the World Championship final. Yes, it went good, and this

:34:54. > :34:58.month it started from qualifying, I played a lot of good matches, and

:34:59. > :35:04.good friends. It feels better and better every day. It is great to get

:35:05. > :35:09.into the final. Do you think going into the qualifiers has made the

:35:10. > :35:12.difference because you seem a lot more relaxed here this year than you

:35:13. > :35:16.have previously, and this is the year where we finally see you will

:35:17. > :35:22.ever the talent we know you've got on the big stage. Why have you been

:35:23. > :35:29.so calm this year? Yes, I think it is the top 16, they are waiting for

:35:30. > :35:35.the qualifiers coming in to have a fight, and of course they have the

:35:36. > :35:40.pressure, they do not want knocked out in the first round. For the

:35:41. > :35:49.qualifiers, they have played a few matches already, they are more

:35:50. > :35:53.relaxed, less pressure to playing at the Crucible. It is one thing to

:35:54. > :35:56.play well, but to be magnificent and produced seven centuries is on

:35:57. > :36:03.another level. Have you surprised yourself with the way you have

:36:04. > :36:07.played? Guess, a big surprise, the first section I started 6-2, and

:36:08. > :36:15.made four centuries. Alan played great. He came back very good.

:36:16. > :36:22.Weighed very good, some very good friends and also he made a lot of

:36:23. > :36:28.centuries. The last free last night was huge, 13-11 would have been

:36:29. > :36:40.rather different from 14-10. Yes, the last frame, we have both got

:36:41. > :36:46.chances, and it was massive pressure. It is Alan had the last

:36:47. > :36:51.shot, it was not good safety shot, so I got a chance. UR a man who is

:36:52. > :36:56.quite calm, but you must be so excited. This is a massive

:36:57. > :37:00.opportunity for to become the world champion, to do this for yourself

:37:01. > :37:08.and to China. I will keep that until after the final! Well done.

:37:09. > :37:11.We have been joined by Jason Ferguson, the chairman of the sport

:37:12. > :37:17.'s governing body, the WPBSA. A great performance from Ding Junhui.

:37:18. > :37:23.You have been growing the sport across the world, how positive is

:37:24. > :37:27.this for you in these efforts? It is fantastic for us. And to see players

:37:28. > :37:32.like Alan competing at this level is fantastic. The scale and size of the

:37:33. > :37:38.sport is tremendous, and we're very proud to here today and think that

:37:39. > :37:44.it is truly a global sport. What do you imagine the reaction will be in

:37:45. > :37:49.China? We had contributors talking about 20, 30, 40 million people

:37:50. > :37:54.watching it. In the China open a few years ago there were 100 million

:37:55. > :38:00.people watching. This year the viewing figures will be

:38:01. > :38:05.unprecedented. Outside of Sheffield we're starting to see the Chinese

:38:06. > :38:11.community gathering in the square. -- outside, in Sheffield. There is a

:38:12. > :38:16.very good possibility it will be all Asian final, because Marco Fu is

:38:17. > :38:23.still very much in the hunt against Mark Selby, which is coming up at

:38:24. > :38:29.7pm this evening. One man who has helped us in our enjoyment is Alan

:38:30. > :38:33.McManus, supercool, and the urbane Scott who has thrilled us. He is now

:38:34. > :38:38.with Rob Walker. You are making the semis at the age

:38:39. > :38:44.of 45 and turning back the years, it is one of the great stories we have

:38:45. > :38:48.enjoyed in recent years. Does that give you any comfort? It must give

:38:49. > :38:54.you some consolation, it has been a brilliant run. Well, it has been

:38:55. > :38:58.hard to take an off a lot out of it right now. I am obviously feeling

:38:59. > :39:03.pretty down. But you have got to say that the Redman won the match, he

:39:04. > :39:09.was by far stronger over the peace. -- the right man. It is a pity. I

:39:10. > :39:15.came out this afternoon still with hope, I thought that if I could win

:39:16. > :39:19.3-1, 3-1, I would take 16 each all day. I still fancied coming back

:39:20. > :39:24.because I have done at the last couple of weeks. But a couple of

:39:25. > :39:32.things just did not go my way this afternoon, and that kind of put paid

:39:33. > :39:38.to my chances. 16-11, it is a real toll road. Again things did not go

:39:39. > :39:42.my way. -- it is a real tall order. Ding scores so heavily, and his cue

:39:43. > :39:47.ball is unbelievable at times, so he is going to take all the stopping.

:39:48. > :39:52.Have you surprised yourself with this run to the semifinals? We spoke

:39:53. > :39:55.weeks ago at the qualifiers when you came through, and you said it is

:39:56. > :39:59.nice to be back Mac but it is important to do well but I have

:40:00. > :40:04.other great things going on in my life. Would you have really believed

:40:05. > :40:08.on day one here at the Crucible that you would have made the semifinals

:40:09. > :40:12.for the first time in 23 years? Well, I would have! Yes, every

:40:13. > :40:16.player worth salt knows that they could play the game, and I have been

:40:17. > :40:25.here before and played at the top level before for a long, long time.

:40:26. > :40:30.I do believe in myself, obviously I will take a bit from it in the days

:40:31. > :40:39.to come. Right now I am a bit disappointed. I wish Ding well and

:40:40. > :40:44.it -- it is his first world final, and he will enjoy it. Hard luck

:40:45. > :40:52.today, and we look forward to welcoming you back here in the

:40:53. > :40:56.future. No worries, big man. Alan McManus is going to go up into

:40:57. > :41:00.at least the top 20 in world rankings, which is his best ranking

:41:01. > :41:07.for nine years. It wonderful to see someone of that integer going up the

:41:08. > :41:15.way? Yes, and it is wonderful to see the disappointment as well. We are

:41:16. > :41:19.all seeing, he has done well, but you can see that he fancied it. As a

:41:20. > :41:29.true warrior and competitor, he was in the match for a very long time,

:41:30. > :41:33.and it is understandable, the disappointment. But to think he's

:41:34. > :41:37.going to come into next season probably in such a good frame of

:41:38. > :41:43.mind, he's got nothing to lose in a way. He can play with a lot of

:41:44. > :41:45.freedom. And the age issue has often been spoken about over the last few

:41:46. > :42:00.days. They are the relative ages of Alan is at the top of the board,

:42:01. > :42:09.with Mark Williams and John Higgins also over 40.

:42:10. > :42:16.Vintage is going up a little, and it shows how much experience and Kraft

:42:17. > :42:20.really does count in this wonderful sport. Yes, you cannot take away

:42:21. > :42:25.expedience, you cannot take away the class on the quality and hard work.

:42:26. > :42:30.The interview with Alan, what I take from that is, as Steve said, he has

:42:31. > :42:34.the heart of a true sportsman and a great champion, and it is very

:42:35. > :42:39.encouraging to see. From my perspective I have seen a number of

:42:40. > :42:42.players who have benefited from a change in the system over the past

:42:43. > :42:49.few years, and the score being relaunched. We have gone from six,

:42:50. > :42:52.seven events to over 20 worldwide. People of Alan's age, who may have

:42:53. > :42:58.thought they were in the last years of the career for some point -- at

:42:59. > :43:03.this point, and they have been working hard, which has paid off. We

:43:04. > :43:07.were dazzled by the skills of Ding Junhui, but we must also forget he

:43:08. > :43:15.has come through qualifying, very few people have done that. Shaun

:43:16. > :43:20.Murphy in 2005, and Terry Griffiths in 1979, they are the others who

:43:21. > :43:24.have won through qualifying. Thank you for sharing what is a brilliant

:43:25. > :43:30.afternoon. I hope you haven't joined us. Ding Junhui has dazzled us, and

:43:31. > :43:36.we looking forward to a final session this evening. 12-12 with

:43:37. > :43:39.Mark Selby against Marco Fu, join us at 7pm.
