    Brilliant from O'Connor.

    Totally deserved.

    An all Irish quarter final perhaps?

    What a day for Damon Heta.

    2 huge scalps.

    Rydz totally outplayed there.

    He's great to watch, but maybe he needs to slow down just a touch.

    He seemed to be trying too hard.

    A great performance from price though tbf. He certainly upped it a bit from this afternoon.

    Keane had the best average in the quarter finals, so every chance of taking out Smith.


    Both of them have every chance

    Peter Wright is now world number 1. MVG is now 5th I think.

    Can't wait for tonight I think Barry could beat Smith.

    Yes pretty poor for a big tournament semi.

    Surely Bully Boy wins the final against the winner of this

    Willie somehow will blame a fan shaking his non throwing hand for this. He just doesn't have the mentality.

    Jesus that tournament couldn't have panned out any better for Smith and he still finds a way to lose. Fair play to Noppert on his first major win

    Clutch there by Noppert

    Despite the whistling he held it together

    That d4 after hitting the 9 on d18 on the 20th leg was a cracker

    I've been defending Smith on here for 8 or 9 years but my patience is gone. He is a bottler. Don't think he will ever win one nor do I care anymore

    Smith needs a psychologist. Danny Noppert ffs. Said it himself should be winning that 11-3

    That was some collapse from Smith. And the way he beat Keane Barry before it.

    A very ordinary final but fantastic drama. Was worried Noppert was going to go all Mike Gregory on it.

    Delighted for Noppert all the same. If it wasn't one of our 2 lads I'm glad it was him that won it.

    Imagine winning a major title beating only 1 person inside the top 20 and beating him with an 84average. Terrible tournament all around apart from the Irish

    Well I suppose the old adage is applicable , you can only beat what's in front of you , so fair play Danny Noppert

    Interesting how three of those four listed are the UK Open. Guess it kind of shows the impact having to play for three days solid — in particular three games of 19/21/21 legs on the Sunday — has on the players.
