    Always like to see Ronnie win but some performance by Judd Trump.

    Great to see his enthusiasm for it. Never a player like him for the game.

    Yes indeed. Like I posted earlier, not over rated at all in my opinion.

    And if he irons out the few mad shots, which o sullivan himself used to have more of as well, he will be a serious force.

    Both of those players can be immensely proud of their performance tonight. Amazing how the right two players can make such a difference to a game. Absolute joy to behold. Id watch every single game of snooker if there was more like them playing each other. 19 seconds average time per shot apiece.

    It was superb stuff. Literally gripped to the telly this evening watching it. Wonderful occasion. There are always certain matches in all sports that look like they may be changing of the guard moments from the older generation to the newer one but Ronnie O'Sullivan dug it out in the end.

    The break a couple of years back seems to have re-invigorated him. He can claim he doesn't like the game, only going back to pay the bills etc. but we haven't heard much of that of late. The fist pumps for the decisive pots in that final frame told you all you need to know.

    I think his genius will only be fully recognised when he's retired and I don't see him as a player who'll hang around when his form does inevitably dip so as someone who just takes absolute pleasure as a neutral from watching him play evenings like this evening are to be cherished before they are gone.

    Trump looked like he just wanted to finish the game and get out of there at 9-4 but the fight back was mesmerising.

    Great evening's entertainment.
