    Tremendous from Williams. Buzzing for that final session. Feared the worst for him after going down 7-1 in the first session.

    Higgins was lucky to get by Lisowski if we’re honest. O’Sullivan leading deservedly.

    Ronnie makes it look so effortless. One wee mistake against him and you are *

    Higgins really needs to take these last 2 frames to stay in it going to the last session

    You always feel Higgins is the more likely to make a mistake even once he's in whereas Ronnie just clears up 9 times out of 10.

    Simply incredible stuff from Williams. A whisker away from 15-11 down and it’s 14-14 heading into the final session. Cold as ice, missing nothing and tracking everything to perfection. Some of his deft cannons and kisses have been a joy to watch. Come on Mark!

    The pinnacle of sporting drama right there. What a match! 16-15 Williams.. one more needed for the Welshman.

    Final frame decider to see who makes the final.

    Hopefully Williams to get the job done.

    They seem surprised Williams hasn’t chucked in the towel whilst needing 3 snookers.

    It’s a World Championship semi final, surely if there’s even a slim chance you can come back you play on until you can’t.

    Just caught up on today's action. Ronnie O'Sullivan never fails to impress, one of my favourite ever sportsman.

    Can’t see it, but hope Trump can come back here. Don’t want O’Sullivan to match Hendry’s record. A quality player with unquestionable ability, but the English love him, and that alone puts me off him.

    I used to dislike Hendry , always wanted hik to lose , then watched him on Instagram and interacting with fans and like the dude now , still want Ronnie to equal and go on to beat his 7 though.

    O’Sullivan and Hendry have the utmost respect for each other. I think that Hendry had the upper hand mentally. The English love O’Sullivan though, and I have always like the fact he hasn’t managed to match Hendry’s record. I think he will now though, and fair play to him. He is an unbelievable player.
