Frame 4: Ding 3-0 Maguire
Shank. Stephen Maguire gets a safety all wrong, running the white into the knuckles of the right corner pocket. He's left Ding Junhui with an easy starter.
He's not missed too many of these.
Frame 4: Ding 3-0 Maguire
Ding Junhui is nestled up behind the green and can't quite nestle on to the bottom of the pack of reds.
That's thee fouls and three misses. At least he can have a laugh about it, sharing a joke with Stephen Maguire about it all before finally getting it right.
Frame 4: Ding 3-0 Maguire
Stephen Maguire has the upper hand in the opening safety exchanges in the fourth frame but how long will this last?
Frame 3: Ding 3-0 Maguire
Ken Doherty

Stephen Maguire is missing chances. He hasn't missed a black off the spot for a couple of matches but he's missed two or three in this final already and that unnerves you.
Ding looks really good out but he's getting help from his opponent. He's a prolific breakmaker but his cueball control is sublime.
Frame 3: Ding 2-0 Maguire
Dennis Taylor
1985 world champion on BBC Two
Majestic century from Ding Junhui. He is going to take a bit of stopping now.
Frame 3: Ding 2-0 Maguire
Superb 105 break from Ding Junhui. Stephen Maguire needs to stop the rot and quickly.
Frame 3: Ding 2-0 Maguire
Sensational red into the middle from Ding Junhui. That should be that for this frame. A century could be on the cards here.
Stephen Maguire has not turned up yet.
Frame 3: Ding 2-0 Maguire
Could this go to 3-0? Ding Junhui's up to 51 and picking off the reds one by one.
Frame 3: Ding 2-0 Maguire
Dennis Taylor
1985 world champion on BBC Two
I can't believe it. The crowd can't believe it. That's the easiest pot Stephen will have missed. Amazing.
Frame 3: Ding 2-0 Maguire
What was I just saying, the frown is back. Stephen Maguire misses a red he would knock in 99 times out of a hundred and then fails to take advantage of a reprieve, with Ding Junhui also guilty of missing a red to the bottom right bin.
Maguire's last miss, a straightish black off its spot, was an absolute shocker.
Frame 3: Ding 2-0 Maguire
After a few facials Stephen Maguire is back in business...the Scot is up to 15 and counting after capitalising on a fairly loose attempt at the middle from his opponent.
Frame 3: Ding 2-0 Maguire
Stephen Maguire is grimacing a little after being left tight on the baulk cushion from Ding Junhui's break.
Ding 2-0 Maguire
Steve Davis
Six-time world champion on BBC Two
All the great players are fantastic front-runners but Ding is one who really seems to revel in it.
It's nice to get more time table than your opponent and he likes to keep his feet to the floor to keep his opponent down.
Ding 2-0 Maguire
Ken Doherty
1997 world champion on BBC Two
Two great shots by Ding Junhui to get himself into the lead, the control he produced with the rest was fantastic.
Stephen Maguire still got a little bit of value out of the frame by making Ding work hard for it but he needs to get his first frame pretty quickly.
He won't be panicking yet because it's early days in a best-of-19 final but the longer he goes the more yesterday becomes a distant memory.
Ding 2-0 Maguire
Ding Junhui's average shot time so far is 26 seconds, while Stephen Maguire's is just a shade over 40 seconds.
Not quite the free-flowing stuff that was anticipated.
Frame 2: Ding 1-0 Maguire
It's now 10 minutes since the last pot. Ding Junhui is having to grind this one out - he leads by 38 points with 35 left on the table.
A thin snick on the final red does the job though. Stephen Maguire is staying in his seat.
Frame 2: Ding 1-0 Maguire
He couldn't could he? Stephen Maguire gets two of the snookers he needs in the blink of an eye, putting the cue ball tight behind the green and then leaving the yellow, pink, black and brown covering the final red.
Exemplary stuff. Imagine Steve Davis will be happy with that in the studio.
