Ronnie won leg 5 in Bradford on Saturday, 10 September, and Judd won leg 6 the next day, in Preston. So the series ended 3-3, but Ronnie came out the winner, because he scored 10 centuries, whilst Judd made 3. Ronnie also had the highest break of the series a 141. Both players hugely enjoyed the challenge and they now want a decider!!!
Luca Brecel is the only Grove player involved in this invitational tournament, played in Bangkok, from 5 to 10 September 2016. Luca reached the quarter finals, where he narrowly lost by 7-6 to Stephen Maguire, the 2015 champion.

Ronnie won the 4th leg of the Eleven30 series in Petersborough, beating Judd Trump by an emphatic 6-0, with breaks of 114, 84, 77, 109, 57 and 112. It’s now all squares in the series, with Ronnie leading by 7 centuries to 3, which could prove crucial if they end up at 3-3 next week-end. All to play for though! Great for the fans.
Ronnie played very, very well but Judd wasn’t probably at his sharpest having been stranded on the motoway en route to the venue. Not ideal preparation …
The qualifying rounds of the Shanghai Masters 2016 were held in Barnsley from August 30 to September 2, 2016. These are the only qualifiers still played under a true tiered system. None of the Grove players involved managed to book their place in the final stages. Neil and Judd, of course, will be in Shanghai as top 16 seeds. All the results, as always, are on cuetracker.
