Stuart Bingham 9-10 Jak Jones

The commentators have referenced both players "feeling the heat" in the Crucible right now with both making errors on the 20th frame.

Nothing to separate early starters

Stuart Bingham and Jak Jones ended their session tied at 8-8.

There is still a long way to go in this best of 33 frames match.

It is impossible to pick a winner as we have seen so far, the game swinging from one player to the other.

They both will have watched the evening session between Wilson and Gilbert and will be more than aware how quickly their luck can change.

Gilbert blows away demons with century

David Gilbert seemed to be a in a dark place for most of the second half of the evening session.

Nothing was going his way and his potting ability had left him.

Winning the last frame will have been a huge boost to Gilbert, especially in the manner he did it with a century break.

All the crowd were behind him and cheered every single pot.

He will regroup now overnight and feel if he brings his game he is more than capable of staging a comeback.

Jones looking to make Morgan proud

In a weird twist of his childhood, Jak Jones was never really into snooker.

It was a holiday in Greece where former Crucible semi-finalist Darren Morgan saw him playing pool.

He got him on the snooker table and Welshman has never looked back since.

Jones would love nothing more than to book his place in this weekend's final to show Morgan's talent spotting eye is spot on.

3rd May 2024, 21:57By Kieran Davies

Kyren Wilson 14-9 David Gilbert

A break of 39 for Wilson but the cannon into the pack didn't work for him.

3rd May 2024, 21:30By Kieran Davies

Kyren Wilson 12-9 David Gilbert

After being gifted another chance to get into this frame, Gilbert plays a poor attempt at potting the brown with the rest.
