    Higgins versus Stevens stands out. I din't realise Stevens was not in the top 16 this year but he must not have been. Hendry has a tuff one with NI's Mark Allen. Lee and Swail should also be interesting.

    The above is from the BBC's website, is there another Micheal Judge from Engerland or is this the Irish boy?

    harsh - his style isn't scintillating but when he gets in a real battle they're usually fascinating to watch. He's a grinder.

    i think so, i think he knows hes not at his best and his kind of lucky with an overnight break, he's been there and he'll sleep tonight not so sure liu will.should be good though.
