World Snooker Championship

Selby beats Neil to face Ronnie O`Sullivan in the Final


Prepare Yourself! It's O`Sullivan-Selby!



Selby scored an amazing victory over Australian Neil Robertson, to reach the World Final for the second time - having lost to John Higgins in 2007.

Selby won Neil Robertson 17-15, avoiding a decider with a marvelous 74 in the first visit, winning the frame 32. Selby scored 13 half century breaks including 2 centuries.



Selby have a nice head-to-head against Ronnie in big matches, and the most of peoples are saying this final will be close, but Ronnie O`Sullivan is now the best player in the mental department(you know why), his safety is consistent, he is winning a lot of frames in one visit, he is very well with the rest, and principally, his focus won't allow Selby to make of it a scrappy final, so I won't be surprised if Selby gets less than 10 frames here.

If we back to the Masters Final, a lot of peoples also expected a close match and get surprised with the scoreline showing 10-4 to O`Sullivan.

Selby said: "I don't feel tired at the moment. I'm sure when I get back I won't sleep because of the adrenaline. Ronnie's a genius - he doesn't fear anyone. He's played some great snooker in patches, but in other patches he's missed balls and nobody's punished him.
I know I'm going to get my chances, it's just a case of whether I take them or not. I'm a lot more confident now than I was in my first final in 2007. I was a qualifier then so any match I was winning was a bonus. But over the last few years, I've won a few tournaments and every time I go to one if I don't win it I see it as a failure.
I'm confident going into tomorrow and hopefully I can pull through over the two days."




Can Selby stop The Rocket?

Times:
Sunday: 14:00 & 19:00 (UK Time) and the same time on Monday.


It has been a fantastic Championship at the Crucible, and I will appreciate this final which promises a lot of good snooker. You can always follow all the results and news from the Crucible in our Facebook Page.
