Oh well, just hope it's a great final and its certainly started that way.
I must admit I was reeling sporting wise yesterday. First seeing Solihull knocked out by Fylde in the play off and then the epic Higgins Gilbert game. I was gutted for Dave at the end - even more so after the interview
- but he did himself proud. He just went off the boil on Friday night, should have really been 14-10 or 15-9 but he admitted to being knackered. Fair play to Higgins. I've been a critic since that alledged incident but he was very sporting with the re-rack and afterwards he was also welling up. The likes of Gilbert, Gary Wilson and James Cahill have been a real shot in the arm for the sport and its been the best tourny for years.
Trump just had too much for Gary Wilson in the end and like Higgins, he's played in fits and starts, somewhat fortunate to beat Un Nooh in the first round but he sarted the final well, 3-1 up, only for Higgins for respond. It was a great session all in all but mentally, will he have the strength Higgins has, or will the later be tired out by his tough games in the build up ? I'm itching for the next session to start
