Big win for Stephen Maguire there, who clears up to beat world champion Zhao Xintong 5-4 to reach the last 16 of the Wuhan Open.

Fair play to @nr147 if he stands up to the barrage he has endured by Ronnie and wins this decider. Has to be said both Saudi ranking finals have been crackers.

Like London buses. You wait 7 years for. Ronnie O’Sullivan 147 and two come along at once! Just like Jackson Page last year, the Rocket scoops the £147,000 prize for 2 maximums in the Triple Crown and Saudi Arabia Masters in the same match

Such a shame a marquee series between England and India has been crammed into 45 days to leave August free for the Hundred.

Still in July, and the final Test match of the English summer starts in two days. Two months of the summer left and school holidays have just started. It saddens me that they've squashed a fantastic series against India into six weeks to clear the way for The ****ing Hundred.

To put Root into more perspective - for most of his career, England have been absolutely shit at Test Cricket. All of those other greats were in sides that you'd consider up there with the best sides ever. It's a lot harder scoring at 30-3 than it is 200-2

Xintong couldn’t spend a lot of time with his fans last night with media duties and the after party, but he was happy to meet them this morning at 11am outside the Crucible. The queue is snaking around the @crucibletheatre with more and more coming 😀🙏🏻 A popular champion!

Zhao Xintong is seven frames away from history, but Mark Williams using Welsh greats Ray Reardon and Terry Griffith as inspiration for greatest overnight final comeback
