From 4-10 to 13-11. Quite the momentum shift for Selby.

Yeah what a turnaround. Hoping he takes this for into the final session and finishes him

And as soon as I wrote that he misses a yellow and gives Higgins a chance to get back in

Quite unusual that the BBC said that tickets were on sale for the final today, is this the final that nobody wanted? I've been watching the "sport" since the late 70's but I'm struggling to be enthused about this years final. I guess like Formula 1 I tune in because of glory years past.

Higgins is playing some very odd shots at the start of the action scratchchin

Why do I have an image in my head of a "Big Man" type from Chewin' The Fat watching this with great interest..?
We're they referring to next year's 2018 finals? Tickets went on sale today for next year and the website crashed under heavy demand.

Impressive counter-comeback by Higgins, three in a row! Like him or not, it keeps it interesting...

What does the 3 digit red led signify at the very bottom of the screen when the full table is in view? Currently "450" I think.

On paper, it will be a grinding Selby win. He has won almost 60% of all his matches against Higgins and is the current world no.1.
The bookies and the stats called it right. Selby has joined the elite. Three wins in 4 years.

Well played Selby. Doubt that'll be the last one he wins.

Well played Selby. To come from 10-4 down. Fair play to Higgins Selby could have ran away with it there towards the end.

Apparently Higgins won £375,001 on a bet placed with paddy power to lose....
