Around the tables

So here are tonight's final scores!
Ollie Lines 4-5 Shaun Murphy
Ali Carter 3-5 Judd Trump
Graeme Dott 1-5 Ding Junhui
Martin Gould 3-5 Matt Selt

Murphy 5-4 Lines

What a fightback! Heartbreak for Ollie Lines, who missed a fairly straightforward red before Murphy got back to the table, but that was quite something from Murphy, who takes the frame and will now face Judd Trump in the semi-finals tomorrow

Murphy 4-4 Lines (*26-48)

Murphy fights back! His second red in particular is absolutely superb, and he even manages to release the final red on the left cushion. That's a match winning shot. Down to the colours, and Shaun needs them all

Murphy 4-4 Lines (9-48)

It. Is. Getting. Tense! Lines is a red and black away from the semis, but he finds the jaws. Shaun is clinging on

Murphy 4-4 Lines (9-43*)

Ooph. Another Lines fluke, with the red flicking the black and dropping in. He plays a snooker behind the pink, from which Murphy can't escape. He concedes the four points, but more crucially leaves Lines with another scoring opportunity. Red, blue, red, black added so far, with five reds left

Murphy 4-4 Lines (9-24)

The pair trade reds before Murphy misses a bit of a sitter into the left middle. He's lucky not to leave anything and we are set for another safety battle

Murphy 4-4 Lines (8-23)

And that, my friends, is what you call 'commentator's curse'. He misses the next red into the right middle, before Murphy flukes a red off the pink - and then misses the following brown

Murphy 4-4 Lines (7-23*)

Lines responds with a brave plant into the right corner that he sinks superbly. It's his turn now and this looks like a real opportunity. Remember he's never reached a ranking event semi-final before, so his heart will be pounding

Murphy 4-4 Lines (7-0)

Murphy gets in first in frame nine with another trademark long red, but he then misses a middle-distance red into the yellow corner

Murphy 4-4 Lines

The pair shake hands before the decider gets underway. This is the third time Lines has been taken the distance this week, but it's new territory for Murphy

Around the tables

A reminder that this is now the only quarter-final match yet to be concluded - Judd Trump awaits the winner of the ninth and final frame
Ali Carter 3-5 Judd Trump
Graeme Dott 1-5 Ding Junhui
Martin Gould 3-5 Matt Selt

Murphy 4-4 Lines (106-6)

So, we're heading, not for the first time today, for a decider! Murphy finishes with a terrific 106, easily the highest break of the match, and just his 15th century of the season. It's been nip and tuck all the way, and you'd be brave to call the winner from here

Murphy 3-4 Lines (*54-6)

Murphy gets up to 41 before opening the cluster of reds off the blue, and he does it deftly. This is now his first 50+ break of the evening, and there's still plenty of mileage in it

Murphy 3-4 Lines (*20-6)

And the problem for the underdog is in missing the black, he split the reds, leaving one over the middle for Murphy to pot. This is a more than handy opening for the former World Champ, who is just picking them off at the moment

Murphy 3-4 Lines (0-6)

So, what has Murphy got left in the locker? Can the Magician pull a rabbit out of the hat? At the moment it's out of his hands, as Lines sinks another fantastic opening red before potting the brown. He's full of confidence, adding another tricky red, but then misses a harder black by some distance.

Around the tables

Ali Carter 3-5 Judd Trump
Graeme Dott 1-5 Ding Junhui
Martin Gould 3-5 Matt Selt

Murphy 3-4 Lines (1-79)

Superb grit shown by Lines, with some very brave, attacking snooker. He hasn't led since the third frame, but is now one away from his first career semi-final

Murphy 3-3 Lines (1-66*)

Lines almost sinks to his knees as he narrowly misses a long red into the right corner. Thankfully, by mere millimetres, he doesn't leave it and Murphy has to play safe. That red is hanging nastily over the corner though and Lines uses it to deflect another red him. Barring snookers, he's going to be in the lead after seven frames

Murphy 3-3 Lines (1-53)

Lines is shaking his head as he drops slightly out of position on the blue. He still pots it, but then misses an awkward red near the top cushion. A hand break and more than handy lead. Five reds left on the table

Murphy 3-3 Lines (1-21*)

The pair get locked into a safety battle before Murphy misses a red by some distance. It hangs over the middle pocket and Lines now has a very, very good chance to add something substantial - as long as he can clear the pink from over the pocket

Murphy 3-3 Lines (0-14)

How's your luck? Not great for Oliver. He plays his split off the blue perfectly, but the pink heads towards the right corner and covers a handful of reds. He pulls off a terrific pot anyway, and then sticks to the pink with the cue ball, meaning it's break over.

Around the tables

Ali Carter 3-3 Judd Trump
Graeme Dott 1-5 Ding Junhui
Martin Gould 3-4 Matt Selt

Murphy 3-3 Lines (38-85)

Well now Lines levels. A wild green cannons back into the cue ball and they both career up the table. Lines pots it, and then cleans up. All square again and game on!

Murphy 3-2 Lines (38-60)

Oh no! A double-kiss on the green and Lines plays in-off! He's lucky that the green drops safe, but that's the snooker Murphy needed

Murphy 3-2 Lines (34-60)

Magnificent from Lines. "You'll do well to see a better 60 break than that all week" says Neal Foulds. And he's right. Some outrageous pots there. Down to the green, snooker needed for Murphy

Murphy 3-2 Lines (34-45*)

A handy 44 from Lines looks like it will be it - until he knocks in a superb long red into the yellow pocket. Frame winning chance now. That really was brilliant under pressure

Murphy 3-2 Lines (34-7*)

A mistake from Murphy, who is on the attack again but misses a long red by some distance. Lines reaches for the rest and sinks it before potting the blue. The black is off its spot, so there's work to be done with the cue ball, but this a good chance nonetheless

Murphy 3-2 Lines (33-0)

An outstanding break from Murphy, including four reds with blacks, but he misses the black off the fifth. He doesn't leave much for Lines, who himself attempts a pot that he cannot sink

Murphy 3-2 Lines (*24-0)

Murphy is playing some gloriously aggressive snooker now. A long opening red, then a superb black into the yellow pocket, screwing back to be perfectly on a loose red. Lines will be getting increasingly worried in his chair

Around the tables

Ali Carter 2-2 Judd Trump
Graeme Dott 1-4 Ding Junhui
Martin Gould 2-3 Matt Selt

Murphy 3-2 Lines (83-6)

Marvellous from Murphy. He goes ahead for the first time since the opening frame with a terrific break of 40 that includes several more excellent pots. The Magician has not been in great form this season, but he's looking very handy tonight

Murphy 2-2 Lines (*59-6)

Well that is just magnificent from Murphy. Lines plays a terrific safety, barely leaving a scrap, but the Magician beautifully pots into the middle before adding an awkward brown into the same pocket. He's closing in on the finish line and has some reds around the baulk end to pick off

Murphy 2-2 Lines (43-6)

Lines claws back six points before playing safe off a couple of reds near the pink spot. There are eight reds left on the table; two are on the right cushion, one is at the baulk end and three are tied up on the top cushion. It all looks a bit messy all of a sudden, making that 37 point lead very valuable

Murphy 2-2 Lines (43-0)

After running into the black off a red, he pulls out an outstanding pot on the pink, into the left middle, before further splitting the reds. The cue ball is never quite under control though and after potting the blue, Murphy runs into the yellow and it's end of break.

Murphy 2-2 Lines (*30-0)

And it's Shaun who's the first to get his hand on the table in what you feel is a crucial frame. He had a choice of three reds for the opener, and from there it's been plain sailing, with the pack well split. Good chance here

Murphy 2-2 Lines

The boys are back on the baize and we are underway in frame five. Remember, the first to five will reach the semi-finals, where they'll face either Ali Carter or Judd Trump

Around the tables

Ali Carter 2-2 Judd Trump
Graeme Dott 0-4 Ding Junhui
Martin Gould 2-2 Matt Selt

Murphy 2-2 Lines (72-29)

The Magician will get another chance though. Lines tries a delicate pot, only for the red to nestle in the jaws and hang over the corner pocket. Murphy can't miss, sinking that before adding the pink. The remaining two reds are taken to get him over the finish line and we are all square going into the interval

Murphy 1-2 Lines (49-29)

Murphy reaches 49 before missing a tricky red with the rest. Three reds left on the table and a lead of 20 is a handy position though

Murphy 1-2 Lines (*30-29)

But now Lines is in trouble. A hit and hope to get out of a snooker, smashing the cueball as hard as possible, sees it somehow miss the reds, brushing the pink instead. Murphy is gifted a chance to score big with the reds well spread

Murphy 1-2 Lines (0-29)

Crikey. How about that? A four ball plant from Lines gets him back to the table. The cueball travels back up to the baulk end though and he's not on anything of note, so plays safe off the yellow. That pot was quick something though.

Murphy 1-2 Lines (0-28)

It's just a break of 27 though. He can't open up the bunch and plays safe off the remaining loose red. A handy advantage at this early stage

Murphy 1-2 Lines (0-20*)

One frame to go until the interval then, and Lines has confidently sunk a couple of terrific pots as he looks to open up some breathing space. He's now in amongst the reds and looking in a handy position

Around the tables

Ali Carter 1-2 Judd Trump
Graeme Dott 0-4 Ding Junhui
Martin Gould 2-1 Matt Selt

Murphy 1-2 Lines (45-74)

Some more safety play before Murphy leaves the brown. Lines pots it before missing the blue by a long way. Snooker required again, but the Magician can't get it. In fact, he fouls by potting the pink. Frame over.

Murphy 1-1 Lines (45-64)

Murphy gets the yellow and green in separate breaks before landing a snooker behind the black. It's a tricky one to get out of, and Lines agonises over it before escaping first time. Some more safety play ensues before Murphy gets an even harder snooker behind the blue. Lines misses, and it's frame on again

Murphy 1-1 Lines (36-64)

"What a fluke" exclaims Neal Foulds, and he's not wrong! Lines tries to find the right corner with the last red, which crashes into the jaws and rolls across the top cushion before dropping into the pocket. The Leeds cueman can't pot the pink to truly finish the frame, but Murphy now needs one snooker

Murphy 1-1 Lines (36-63)

Lines takes on a tough red, knowing it pretty much wins him the frame if he sinks it. Unfortunately it stays out and the door is open for Murphy. He pots the first three reds with colours to reduce the deficit dramatically. One red left, 27 the difference

Murphy 1-1 Lines (14-63)

Lines finishes quite straight on the blue and has to screw back for a tricky red into the green corner. He needs to rest and only finds the jaws. 49 the lead with four reds remaining. It's a good contribution

Murphy 1-1 Lines (14-37*)

Lines pots the red that Murphy leaves hanging over the pocket, and then sinks a good long pink. He hasn't quite got control of the cue ball though and requires a superb pot on the second red to get the break properly on track. Another chance here to make another sizeable break and perhaps move into the lead

Murphy 1-1 Lines (14-0)

"That's 1-1" they say on commentary as Murphy flukes the opening red of frame three. Even better for the Magician, he kisses the blue to get position on a colour. He can't make the most of the opportunity though. Just a break of 14 after missing a red to the left corner.

Around the tables

Ali Carter 1-0 Judd Trump
Graeme Dott 0-1 Ding Junhui
Martin Gould 1-0 Matt Selt

Murphy 1-1 Lines (18-86)

Two fouls and misses from Murphy, with the latter invitingly leaving Lines on the reds. He doesn't need much to get over the finish line, but goes way past the snookers required mark with a break of 21. We're all square

Murphy 1-0 Lines (18-57)

A good break of 56, but his cannon off the black fails to split the remaining cluster of five reds. He plays safe and a lucky kiss on the brown puts him right behind the green. Not the intended target, but Murphy in all kinds of bother now

Murphy 1-0 Lines (18-41*)

Glorious delicate red from Lines, and then an even better kiss which leaves him on the black. This is a terrific scoring opportunity here. The reds are well spread and he's just picking them off at the moment. Frame winning opportunity

Murphy 1-0 Lines (14-1)

Lines gets the opening red of frame two, but the white sticks to the left cushion. He misses the awkward following black and that leaves Murphy with a chance to add a few points before playing a good safety, with the cue tight on the baulk cushion

Around the tables

Ali Carter 0-0 Judd Trump
Graeme Dott 0-0 Ding Junhui
Martin Gould 1-0 Matt Selt

Murphy 1-0 Lines (72-49)

Ah. Lines fouls as he misses a thin clip on the red on the top cushion. He leaves a free ball, which Murphy pots, adding a colour before sinking the remaining red. A good pot on the yellow with the rest is followed by all the colours up to the pink, and the Magician nets the opening frame

Murphy 0-0 Lines (39-49)

A good break of 39 from Lines, before he can't quite move the last red on the side cushion enough to be able to pot it. A handy lead to have at this stage in the frame

Murphy 0-0 Lines (39-34*)

Murphy misses a tricky red to the left corner and Lines now has a chance to build a substantial break. A superb plant brings another red into play and he's got a real chance to make a defining break here

Murphy 0-0 Lines (39-9)

Lines is left behind the blue once more, and his escape leaves a red for Murphy. The Magician sinks that and should score big after getting the black onto the pink spot, but find the jaws of the right corner with another red. A scrappy opening from both players

Murphy 0-0 Lines (27-9)

Lines opens the door for Murphy with his escape from the snooker. The reds are well set. but the blue and black being tied up on the cushion makes like a little difficult. He rejects the option of potting a colour in favour of tucking in behind the blue

Murphy 0-0 Lines (19-9)

Lines goes in off, but other than the four points conceded, no damage is done. A safety battle follows, which Murphy wins as Lines hits a red too thinly. Murphy adds a break of 15 - but it probably should have been more. He loses position off a red and tucks in behind the yellow on the baulk cushion

Murphy 0-0 Lines (0-9)

An excellent long opening red from Lines into the right corner. He's on perfect position on the green, which he duly sink, followed by the only other loose red. He crashes into the pink instead of the pack after potting the brown and it's break over, but a confident start from the underdog

Murphy 0-0 Lines

Here we go then! Lines breaks off and we are underway

Here come the players

What a moment this is for Oliver Lines; his first ranking event quarter-final. He's first out, before Murphy joins us to the beat of 'Can't Stop' by the Red Hot Chili Peppers

The Magician is in good form

It's been a good tournament for Shaun Murphy so far. He beat Jak Jones earlier on today in the last-16, having dispatched on Neil Robertson in the previous round

Trump 5-4 Zhou

Trump 4-4 Zhou (52-1)

Trump is through, a dejected Zhou not interested in playing for snookers. Still without a win against Trump. Squandered a real chance to change that record today. Had enough visits to the table, but Trump battled hard and prevails 5-4. He will face Ali Carter in the tonight's quarter-finals (5pm GMT).

Trump 4-4 Zhou (27-1)

Zhou so close to a red to a centre pocket. Looked all or nothing shot, but the red somehow stays out. This is surely chance for Trump to finish off the match.

Trump 4-4 Zhou (22-1)

Trump misses a blue off spot. Wasn't easy, but would expected to have slotted that.

Trump 4-4 Zhou (21-0)

Nothing doing from Zhou as he can't roll in a red. Wasn't easy, but again pressure ball. Tension mounting. Zhou has not responded convincingly to these moments.

Trump 4-4 Zhou (12-0)

Trump with a fantastic long pot. Was in the jaws of the yellow pocket, but just went at that full throttle. He gets first bite at the balls in the decider, but misses black with an overcut attempt. Back to Zhou.

Trump 3-4 Zhou (73-56)

And we will have the deciding frame. Zhou concedes after trying to unearth a snooker on pink with just two balls left up. Can't achieve the desired outcome and Trump rolls pink over the green pocket. Won't keep that out. All down to one frame for a quarter-final tie in about an hour's time against Ali Carter.

Trump 3-4 Zhou (73-47)

Could be heading for a deciding frame. Zhou misses red three times before leaving the red and Trump moves 21 points clear on colours. Trump then pots yellow and green. 26 ahead with 22 left up. Zhou just faltering under the pressure. Chances were there, but looks like we are going all the way in this dramatic last-16 match.

Trump 3-4 Zhou (40-47)

Zhou seems to be twitching a bit out there. Trump doing the right thing by keeping it all tight with two reds left up. Back to within seven points.

Trump 3-4 Zhou (26-47)

But not happening for Trump as a red doesn't drop. That looked like a kick. Zhou slots red over pocket, but ends up pushing white onto a cushion. Awful shot from Zhou. Four reds left up.

Trump 3-4 Zhou (19-46)

Well, that is a surprise. Zhou faced with a tough shot using rest. Could not drop the red in and that frame-winning chance is over. Trump back at table battling for his future in this tournament.

Trump 3-4 Zhou (12-19)

Pressure red for Trump, but can't drop the ball in. Knew he was leaving a chance for Zhou. Did he get a kick? Doesn't matter now. Zhou with frame and match in his hands if he is mindful of his work.

Trump 3-3 Zhou (0-74)

Looks like Zhou is going to move one up with two frames to play here. Trump can't hit back and is back in a pickle not long after he could easily have led 4-2. Zhou has never backed off during this match.

Trump 3-3 Zhou (0-47)

A 47 break before Zhou misses red. He'll be disappointed not to be further ahead in this frame.

Trump 3-3 Zhou (0-34)

Brilliant long red from the World No 24 Zhou and he is right at the heart of action again as he lands perfectly on blue. Not lacking spirit or aggression in his play today.

Trump 3-2 Zhou (58-63)

Well, quite astonishing. Trump looked certain to lead 4-2, but Zhou cleared up to the black. Missed black along the top cushion, but it came away from the pocket just enough. Trump tried to tickle it in with extended rest, but stopped over the hole and Zhou slotted black for 3-3. A break of 58 not good enough for Trump. Both men needing two frames.

Trump 3-2 Zhou (58-36)

This could be a huge steal for Zhou. Back to 22 points behind heading for the colours. Trump had chance of long red, but couldn't take it. Over to Zhou.

Trump 3-2 Zhou (58-17)

Trump seeking out one more red to leave Zhou in a snookers required situation in this sixth frame of a possible nine.

Trump 3-2 Zhou (58-4)

Six reds left on the table, but Zhou takes one of them out with a fine pot to middle pocket. Trump with a 58 break after tough black stays out. Huge moments for Zhou's future health in this match and event.

Trump 3-2 Zhou (23-0)

Zhou attempts a safety shot. Almost flukes a red with a plant, but leaves it. Well, that is bad news for Zhou. What is that error going to cost him?

Trump 2-2 Zhou (79-1)

A delightful 79 break from the Juddernaut to move 3-2 clear. Returns to his chair for a cool slurp of water. All looking very different, all of a sudden. Looks like a meeting with Ali Carter for Judd tonight in the last eight. Carter leads Sam Craigie 4-0.

Trump 2-2 Zhou (34-1)

Trump is really starting to find his way back into the light. Looked tired when he trailed 2-0, but is right back in the fight here. Super cut with a rest on the black and he is progressing nicely here as he attempts to win a third straight frame.

Trump 1-2 Zhou (58-46)

A brilliant green from Zhou down a side rail. Pops in brown and blue, but can't slot the pink. What a chance is gone. Both players chasing pink and black. Vital moments in this match, but Trump doubles the pink up and down the table. In goes the pink. And he clips in the black. Remarkable. What a finish to the frame. We are level at 2-2.

Trump 1-2 Zhou (45-34)

We are down to the colours with Trump holding a lead of 13 points, but a thumping long yellow from Zhou. Five colours left up..

Trump 1-2 Zhou (40-32)

Down to the final red with Trump seven points ahead of Zhou. All very taut in this fourth frame. Trump cuts in a red and he has a chance here to bring this match level.

Trump 1-2 Zhou (20-32)

So no winning thrust from Zhou. Reds all awkwardly placed near top cushion.

Trump 1-2 Zhou (20-20)

A fearless pot on a red to a middle pocket by Zhou gives him chance to launch his own counter argument in this frame. Six reds left up and they are level on points.

Trump 1-2 Zhou (20-1)

Poor shot from Zhou as he clips in red to middle pocket from a Trump error, but runs into centre of reds. Forced to escape from a snooker. A fabulous plant from Trump then takes centre stage. Fine chance to again get his cue arm working, but out of position on 20. Just the safety.

Trump 1-2 Zhou (0-0)

Zhou breaks off in this fourth frame of the day. Long red tempter for Trump, but he misses that by a fair old margin. What you would call a wide in cricket. Just the safety shot for Zhou with white on baulk cushion.

Trump declares on 71. More than enough to reduce the gap to 2-1. One more frame before the mid-session break.

Trump 0-2 Zhou (63-1)

Much, much more like the Judd Trump we have come to expect. One fabulous long red to start the break and he is going to dish up in one visit. Classic play from the 22-time ranking event winner. Battle is joined.

Trump 0-2 Zhou (20-1)

Trump with a searing long red to give himself first opportunity after a tight safety joust.

Trump 0-2 Zhou (1-1)

Long red by Zhou, but butchers the yellow trying to screw back. Trump powers in a red, but no colour to follow as black ends up on bottom cushion. Zhou has lost all three of their career meetings with Trump a 5-0 winner against Zhou in the last 16 of the German Masters in January.

Trump 0-1 Zhou (0-126)

A 91 knock from Zhou sees him move 2-0 ahead. Work to be done by Trump if he is to survive in this event, but he hit back from 4-1 behind against Liang Wenbo last night in a 5-4 win. Would be foolish to rule him out.

Trump 0-1 Zhou (0-100)

Nice chance for Zhou to clear the table. Possible 98 break available for the young Chinese professional.

Trump 0-1 Zhou (0-71)

Would be fair to say Trump has not had the rub of the green so far in this opening 40 minutes or so. Zhou with a glorious chance to move two to the good after his opponent fails to hole a long red. Zhou cashes in with a long red before starting to mop up the balls.

Trump 0-1 Zhou (0-35)

Nice roll of a red into a top pocket by Zhou and he is away again in this second frame. Plays a brilliant recovery shot bridging over a red to pot another red and land on the blue. Classy shot, but he then misses a mid-range red seconds later. No huge breaks yet as Trump tries to sink a red to a centre pocket, but narrowly fails.

Trump 0-0 Zhou (17-57)

Both men have had chances in this frame, but looks like Zhou is going to take it out. Lovely positional shot on green to red is followed by red and blue. 40 clear with 35 up, but Trump has seen enough. A 1-0 lead for Zhou.

Dott edges Higgins in all-Scottish battle

The 2006 world champion is hitting the ball well in Turkey. Next up for him is Ding Junhui in the last eight tonight.

Trump 0-0 Zhou (17-47)

A shocker from Zhou as he fails to sink a straight blue off the spot, but only 16 from Trump in response. Zhou still alive in this opening frame.

Trump 0-0 Zhou (1-38)

A nice little cameo effort from Zhou Yuelong of 38 from a poor Trump break-off shot, but the Juddernaut picks out a long red to show he is also in fine fettle. This match could be an absolute corker as both men bid to reach the last eight. First to five frames will progress.

Higgins blitzes Holt to power into the last 16 of Turkish Masters

Judd Trump dug deep to win the final four frames to beat Liang Wenbo 5-4 and book his place in the last-16 of the Turkish Masters.
The world No. 3’s lean spell looked set to continue as Liang ran through four frames on the spin to lead 4-1.
But Liang felt the pressure with the winning line in sight and his errors handed Trump the chance to counter and he did so to perfection to make it seven wins on the spin against the Chinese player.
