I'll be interested to see how they stage that.<BR/><BR/>Also, I think they found a solution to Ding defending his UK Championship, didn't they? As it clashed with the Asian games. <BR/><BR/>Does the same apply to O'Sullivan? Am I right in thinking the pool series tour leg at London's Excel clashes with the Grand Prix. If so, has the Rocket declared himself available for the Grand Prix?<BR/><BR/>Thanks, JoeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29605452.post-1158320071349068162006-09-15T12:34:00.000+01:002006-09-15T12:34:00.000+01:00The Masters will be at the Wembley Arena.The Leagu...The Masters will be at the Wembley Arena.<BR/><BR/>The League has in previous years been the top four plus three wildcards.
