“Shaun Murphy has been inspired by his Masters semi-final opponent, Ronnie O’Sullivan, in a bid to combat slow shot time that has crept into his game recently. Murphy dispatched Jack Lisowski 6-3 in the quarter-final and led 3-1 at the mid-session interval after 51 minutes of action, which included a 131 break from ‘The Magician’, as he looks to be quicker and more aggressive at the table.”
