Anyone want to argue that the final would have been better in a shorter frame format?
Yeah, they need to stick to the longer matches, especially since there aren't as many tournaments these days. The only part they need to change is the ridiculous session format, where guys are playing like 8 games or whatever and taking a two-hour break. If you're going to play a race to 9, why not just play the whole thing out in one session? The old format is still set for the game of 30 years ago where frames took 20-30 minutes each. Since they go so much faster now it needs to change. In my opinion it's one of the things that is really holding the game back.
