Nearly there

Play is just about to start in Yushan with the two semis taking place at the same time.

We’ll have sporadic updates from the two semi-finals, plus all the fallout and reaction to the games.

We will then have ball-by-ball coverage of both sessions of tomorrow’s final right here.

Hello!

Hello and welcome to live coverage of the World Open snooker semi-finals from Yushan, China.

Defending champion and World No 1 Judd Trump has enjoyed an impressive tournament so far, beating Sanderson Lam, Fan Zhengyi, David Lilley and Kyren Wilson to set up a meeting with Jackson Page.

In the other semi-final, local hero Ding Junhui will be hoping to make it only a third win on home soil ever and a first since he won this tournament in 2018.

Ding will face Australian Neil Robertson, a three-time winner of this event, although the last of those came in 2012.

Schedule:

• Judd Trump vs Jackson Page – 6am
• Neil Robertson vs Ding Junhui – 6am
