Wembley Masters Day 5 Latest, John Higgins and Peter Ebdon through to the Semi Finals
John Higgins turned what was expected to be a close match into a one sided game as he beat an out form Stephen Hendry 6 - 2 to secure his place in the semi final.
Higgins commented, 'I couldn't believe how many shots Stephen was missing,'
'I got myself geared up to play in a really tough match. And while I thought I played well, Stephen just never got started.
'But I will take that any day. It just shows you the ups and downs you can have in this game.'
Hendry who had been in great form this season coming of his Malta cup win lamented his performance, 'I don't know where that came from,'
'You are going to have days when you don't play well. You would be a robot if you didn't.
'But my head wasn't right from the word go and I played dreadfully.
'I missed a black off the spot in the fifth frame that I haven't missed for a month. At that point I just lost the plot.'
Ebdon Demolishes Steve Davis Ebdon followed up his 6 - 0 whitewash of David Gray in the first round with another impressive display against Steve Davis.
The 2002 champion said of his game, 'For one reason or another I have always concentrated on ranking events and haven't given the Masters the respect it deserved.
'But I haven't played well here either. However, don't get me wrong I would dearly love to win.
'And it was great today to have family and friends here supporting me.'
