Bingtao about to go ahead for the first time in the match? (I think)

Aye, he was 6-2 down after the morning session, he’s now 8-7 up.

Massive fluke puts Williams in. Favourite for the frame now for 8-8.

Edit, loses position and misses a straightforward blue (and I mean straightforward by professional standards)

8 all it is. Scrappy frame.

And Ronnie needed just 2 frames this morning to go through to the semis.

Mid-session in the Trump v Bingham game and Bingham has won all 4 frames this morning.

Trump 5 - 7 Bingham

Just turned the box on, Bingtao taken the first two of the afternoon to go 10-8 ahead. Williams played two misses on the trot, under pressure here.

Bingtao visibly folding. A wildly overhit effort misses the pot by a country mile, with no pretence of trying to control the cue ball. Could have gone anywhere, and lucky to only leave Williams a relatively difficult opening red. This looks very much like Williams’ match to lose now, Bingtao not looking at all confident.

Williams through 13-11

Trump goes through 13-8, winning 8 frames on the spin.

Higgins - Lisowski down to a decider. Higgins strong favourite imho.

On a side note, what pleb decided to introduce these poxy little “Ton Up!!” banners? FFS. :rage:

Cracking game that, Higgins takes it after a Lisowski mistake.

First time the Class of '92 have all been in the semis since 1999

Last two frames come straight from errors by Lisowski. Higgins is pretty unforgiving closing out matches.
