As you will be well aware it is the Masters Snooker this week from Alexandra Palace and as part of a preview article I wrote for Cuesport News I had a go at making a prediction of the winner and runner-up.
Well, before this on a piece of paper just randomly thrown onto my desk I had a go at predicting who would get through every match, how would I be able to predict an overall winner without first plotting their path through the event right?
I cannot believe the run I have had so far, with only two first round matches left today I have so far predicted the winner in 6 out of 6 of the matches that have been played.
To get a first round clean sweep I need both Graeme Dott and Mark Selby to win today. Coupled with this yesterday I also got the correct score in the Robertson v Allen game when I said in a tweet it would be 6-3.
Now I didn’t have a bet (wish I had!) but I am thinking of playing Euromillions this week!
Right, so it is available for the world to see here are my predictions (based on wins for Dott and Selby) for the remainder of the tournament.
Quarter Finals
Ronnie O’Sullivan to beat Judd Trump
Neil Robertson to beat Mark Williams
Mark Selby to beat Shaun Murphy
John Higgins to beat Graeme Dott
Semi Finals
Neil Robertson to beat Ronnie O’Sullivan
Mark Selby to beat John Higgins
Final
Neil Robertson to beat Mark Selby
So, I have had my say, it would be good to read your own predictions in the comments below.
