[p=21, 2, left]Ding began the [b]session[/b] well,[b]cementing[/b] an [b]overnight lead[/b] with a further two [b]frames[/b] to take him 7-4 ahead of Liang.[/p][p=21, 2, left]But Liang [b]rallied[/b] magnificently, [b]taking[/b] the next four frames to give him a narrow lead over his [b]compatriot[/b].[/p][p=21, 2, left]Having failed to [b]pot[/b] a ball for over an hour, it looked like things might be over for Ding. But then he produced a [b]clearance[/b] of 111 to take the 16th frame. [b]Breaks[/b] of 91 and 63 on the following frames [b]secured[/b] him the match.[/p][p=21, 2, left]The world number 11 now [b]faces[/b] Stephen Hendry, a seven-time world champion. Hendry beat Ding in Sheffield last year, but Ding must still[b]savour[/b] memories of his win over the Scotsman in the 2005 China Open. He delighted the Beijing crowd by [b]coming from 4-1 down[/b] to beat Hendry 9-5 in the final.[url=http://www.24en.com/bbc/][color=#ffffff]转贴于:24EN_BBC[/color][/url][/p][p=21, 2, left]Current champion Ronnie O’Sullivan believes Ding Junhui [b]has what it takes to go all the way[/b]. He is reported to have said in the past, "Tennis has Federer, golf has Tiger Woods, Ding could do the same to snooker."[/p][p=21, 2, left]But this year, O’Sullivan is himself the focus of most attention. The world number one was recently put under review after making [b]lewd[/b] comments at a news conference during the China Open.[/p][p=21, 2, left][b]Nevertheless[/b], O’Sullivan is a favourite to win this year’s championship. In the second frame of his first-round victory over Stuart Bingham, it took ‘The Rocket’ just seven minutes to deliver a clearance of 140.[/p][p=21, 2, left]Yet O’Sullivan is anything but [b]complacent[/b]. After the game he was asked to judge his performance out of 10. He said, "Five. Something like that."[/p][/size][/font][/color]
