These multiple world champions are special players, it's so tough to get a few.. That's why only the very best do it, I'm sure Judd will, but Robertson, no, not now..
I want Murphy to win it now. Whoever wins between him and Wilson need to win it. Selby and Bingham are boo.
I think Judd needs to stop playing Riga, Gibraltar, six red challenge and save himself for the big tournaments.
No need to be playing tinpot events and this stage in his career.
Judd lacks some cojones i feel
I’ve never seen such an underwhelming semi final line up.
I hope Kyren can win it as he is the only one who hasn’t. But I just don’t think his game is ready yet.
Exactly just true, Judd can end up with 80 tournaments wins, but 3 triple crowns at almost 32... Not good enough Judd.... He's a great player of course, but his triple crowns, where legends are made isn't there yet....
Judd never plays in Riga Masters or 6 reds. Maybe he could allow playing In Gibraltar though. Really needs that 2nd world title sooner or later though.
Indeed Arsenal, Robertson has been saying that for 11 years
I'm gutted of course but got to get over it and focus on the rest of the tournament. Come on Shaun!
I'd like a new champion, so come on Kyren... But All I can see is Selby torturing his opponents & winning his 4th....
Selby looked imperious again Williams. Nothing flashy but ground his opponent down and hoovered up his mistakes.
He’s the man to beat
Bingham needs a good start today, if he gets behind he'll stay behind.... Stay with Selby
I don't like either Selby or Bingham,.
Bingham has been playing at a good standard. He has a chance vs Selby but needs to get a lead.
Starting to think it is not good for a player to win 5+ ranking titles heading into the world championship. No player has won the world championship in the same season when they have won 5+ ranking titles heading into it.

Mark Selby won 4 ranking titles heading into the world championship in 2016/2017 then winning the world title made it 5 overall.
So I think next season Judd needs to win 3 or 4 ranking titles heading into the world championship and then putting his main focus in to the world championship.
Ronnie took 3 years to win his second World title, Higgins 9 years!
Judd wasn't in the best of form going into this World Championship. Out in the first round of the Players and Tour Championship and wasn't so good in the Championship League.
Let's all have a strong push for the next 5 days and get over 2,000 comments think we are right on track for it.
the 1st day of the semi final is never that great as only afternoon and evening session but should be a lot better tomorrow.
Has anyone been 8-0 up after the 1st semi-final day?
I'm not too sure to be honest.
Mark Selby was in my year group at secondary school. Nice lad. Quiet, but always quick with a silly joke. I'm not claiming to have known him well or anything like that, but I remember him.
It was a terrible school (was, because it doesn't technically exist anymore and got amalgamated with two others into a new superschool), and there were some pretty terrible people in the year group as well. But I'm always glad to see him do well and root for him at every World Championships. Although I do appreciate why those who don't know him would be put off by his playing style.
I appreciate Selby's greatness, no doubt he's one of the best ever, & probably toughest player, but not for me... He's got 3,, that's enough
