After Trump missed a green on the colours in frame nine, Jones secured the win. Meanwhile, Mark Selby defeated Liam Highfield 6-3 to set up the final. Highfield took the opening frame, but Selby levelled with an 85 and moved ahead 3-2. A 56 from Highfield levelled the match at 3-3, but Selby won three frames in a row. Selby can climb from fourth to second in the rankings if he wins the title. He praised Highfield's safety play, stating he couldn't remember him playing a poor shot. Reflecting on his career, Selby noted he never imagined reaching 40 ranking finals when he started as a 16-year-old in 1999.
