World Snooker 2005

Yeah, but there were better players in Round 1 than him.

No, there weren't. He's got here deservedly, and I've said he looks good from the start. His long potting has been way above anyone elsea really, apart from Murphy.

how come he got to the final and they didn't, then?

 

[Tom Halsey]

Because Jamee says so - we must follow his prophetic words which are proved right time and again.

its a boring final, i could not care less about who wins. I can apperciate the talent on show, but not the snooker. If i had to pick someone...... it would be stevens because we share the same first name

14-13 to Murphy, looks like being a late-nighter.

16-14 to Murphy!!!

How many to win? 17?

 

[Magrat Garlick]

Eighteen.

Go Murphy.

I'd kinda like to see the taff win the Worlds at some point as he seems to have had a rough time of it over the past few years, but I don't want him to win when he's playing an Englishman...

Btw Graeme Dott's brother is a 160 ish rated Scrabble player (couldn't resist mentioning that)

I agree - and from his interview he seems a thoroughly nice man.

It's looking precarious.

Well done Shaun Murphy

Well done Shaun Murphy

Yep, held himself together brilliantly and never looked like missing anything.

Awesome work, Mr Murphy.

As the world champion is not a member of the top 16, McCulloch (who holds 16th place) will have to qualify for all major tournaments next season despite being a member of that elite bracket. A very strange state of affairs.

Makes more sense than the Champion having to qualify.

Indeed.

Congratulations, Mr. Murphy a great champion of a great tournament.
