The UK Championship is giving another snooker competition with all the buzz fully loading around it. Defending champion and world number one Judd Trump storms into the semis with a commanding 6–2 win over three-time champion Ding Junhui. Judd Trump is the second star in as many weeks to say that the table pockets have been "so big" lately. He told ITV, "The pockets are so big right now that I find it hard to believe that the better player doesn't always win." Judd Trump, the number one player in the world, is in the semifinals of the Champion of Champions after beating Lei Peifan 6-2. He wasn't at his best today. Judd Trump comes back from 42-0 down to get within one game of the semifinals. He made the mistake with the snooker, and he took full advantage of it! The shot to screw off the black and land perfectly on the last red was a great touch and timing. Trump started his campaign in Group Two with a 4-1 win over Bai, the current women's world champion. Bai won the first frame, but Trump won three half-centuries in a row in the next four frames. Lei fired the only century break of the quarter-final in the second frame but Trump slowly pulled away and completed a 6-2 victory with a break of 71. Judd Trump wins the first day of the Champion of Champions without working too hard. Trump missed an easy black on 45. And then Lei Peifan got the snooker he needed! But it didn't last long after he left the green, and Trump did enough to win and go up by two at the break. The world number one had a hard time at first, but he beat Bai Yulu, the world women's champion, 4-1 at the Champion of Champions.

Neil Robertson`s recent form
Neil Robertson powered into the UK Championship last eight with a commanding 6–1 win over Wu Yize in York. Wu started brightly with a 62 to take frame one, but from there it was vintage Robertson: breaks of 51, 65, 75 and 68 as he swept five straight frames and later overturned a 48-point deficit to seal the match. He’ll face Pang Junxu next, after the 25-year-old stunned two-time champion Mark Williams 6–3, finishing with a brilliant 116 to earn a standing ovation. Neil Robertson won the inaugural Crucible Cup. The Australian defeated Stephen Hendry, Mark Selby, and then John Higgins 7-5 in the final to lift the trophy. The unique event from Reading was played under Snooker 900 rules and shown on Pluto TV. Neil Robertson said the snooker calendar needs more formats after beating Stephen Hendry in the '900' Crucible Cup. The non-WST comp has 15-min frames and ball-in hand. Stephen Hendry's return to competitive snooker action ends in a 6-2 defeat to Neil Robertson at the Crucible Cup, but the seven-time world champion showed spells of his class, making a break of 100 in frame five. Robertson produced runs of 129, 104 and 106. Neil Robertson won a tough 6-4 match against John Higgins to reach the semi-finals of the Champion of Champions in Leicester. The game was close early on, with both players exchanging high breaks. Robertson made breaks of 83 and 127, while Higgins responded with runs of 91 and 81, leaving the first four frames tied. But Robertson took control with two impressive breaks of 115 and 64, leading 4-2. Although Higgins fought back with breaks of 86 and 79, Robertson sealed the win by taking the eighth frame and finishing with a solid 63, helped by an excellent long red in the 10th frame. Next, Robertson will face another four-time world champion, Mark Selby, in the semi-finals on Saturday. Earlier in the tournament, Robertson had beaten Tom Ford 4-1, and Higgins overcame Xiao Guodong 4-3. On Friday, world number one Judd Trump will take on reigning world champion Zhao Xintong in an exciting semi-final matchup.
Neil Robertson Strength
Neil Robertson will now attempt to make amends for his mistakes and subpar performance in this match against Stuart Bingham. He goes into this match hoping to overturn the poor performance he had recently against Joe O'Connor (0-3), Judd Trump (3-0) and Tom Ford (3-0).

Judd Trump vs Neil Robertson Prediction
Judd Trump's title to lose I reckon. Went into the tournament saying Mark Selby would win but just favour Judd now, seems to be playing well and is due a tournament win. There are going to be two great semi finals though. Last year, Judd Trump beat Barry Hawkins to win it in 2024. This year, Trump (Judd not Donald!) is a good bet to retain his Title. Mark Selby, Shaun Murphy also look strong along with Neil Robertson.
