Ronnie O’Sullivan 7-7 Neil Robertson
O’Sullivan to break.
Five frames maximum remaining – essentially a best of 5 from this moment on.

FIVE-IN-A-ROW!
And this Jeddah showdown is now all-square!
That stray red proving costly for Robertson as O’Sullivan sinks it and that’s the start of another excellent break, this time an 80.
That comes to an end when he snookers himself on the yellow and when smashing the cue ball around the table, he fouls. Robertson pauses for a moment, perhaps thinking if it’s worth getting up for.
But 40 behind and 27 remaining behind, he opts against it.
Incredible fightback from O’Sullivan.

Maybe he’s not that lucky as Ronnie pots it!
He then follows up with a superb black which drops in dead weight. So, so nice watching that glide across the table before dropping into left corner pocket.
Still nine reds out there up for grabs for O’Sullivan who is looking to punish the latest Robertson error.

I was almost about finished my post saying this looked a Robertson opportunity for the frame here.
He builds a break, which started from a long red, up to 33 before having a free go at a red knowing he could have the white safe.
Instead, he leaves a red over the pocket but appears to have gotten fortunate when the cue ball sneaks behind the blue.
