Yea and that was the year he lost to Steve Davis at the Worlds. I always thought that was an 'interesting' result and no that's not a play on Davis's nickname
It was ironic for me that he was done for throwing a match against Higgins - a few years before that I'd wanted Higgins to beat King in a similar tournament and he lost in a decider from ahead in frames.
If he wins this now it'll be ridiculous. 3-0 down against O'Sullivan and wins 4-3, 4-1 down against Selby and wins 6-5 and now he could overturn a 5-0 deficit against Williams.
Following bits of it. Poland now the favourites but look short to me. Swiatek has been far from convincing and there's not much in the way of back up if she starts losing.
