This is a bit painful to watch. I mean - I'm happy whoever wins, because I like both very much, but I didn't want one of them to get squished in the process. John is obviously player better, but he's also got the run of the ball, and absolutely nothing that Ryan does goes right.
At least it's not 8-3, but 7-4 and tea time.
C'mon Ryan, the Swedish guy has started calling you Ryan 'Not today' Day - we can't have that!
To add insult to injury Eurosport is showing the final frame of the UK last year. Are they out to break my little snookery heart or what?!?!?

Congrats to John Higgins on his 19th ranker!
It was great - there was a little bit of Sheff or Wembley in that venue as John fell over the winning line.
And yes, Ryan was the player of the tournament, and props to John for saying that, as well as to Ryan for not being a coward and blaming other things than himself for not having played better.
