The World Championship started on Saturday but only now have i decided to star playing. The first round is always tough as you can never truly know how the player is hitting the ball.
So the one pick i have is John Higgins v Stephen Hendry.
Both fabulous players and multiple World title holders.
Higgins though is the younger of the two and the better player in this moment. Hendry is a class but he is no longer elite level.
My bet is Higgins -3.5 on the handicap. This is a long match best out of 25. I expect Higgins to win comfortably. Hendry is capable of good moments but over the course of a long match Higgins will wear him out.
