So would we, but is it all about TV? Jamie would love to win everything out there as most players do but not everyone will achieve it but he gives it 150% everytime.

I do believe he will win a major not because I'm his wife but because I believe in his talent, maybe not this weekend but he will and its all about gaining experience and longevity in this sport, 7 pro tour wins don't just happen either so for all his supporters thank you and for those that aren't thanks as well cuz its because of you that makes him more determined to prove you wrong.

Hope you don't mind me asking but was Jamie 'gutted' or bothered that his match wasn't shown live on ITV 4? fantastic performance btw. Pity we didn't see (or I didn't anyway).

It didn't matter to him, the family and supporters were more upset lol but ITV did show the game in full at the end of all the games.

Jamie's one of the best players England has delivered in the past decade. I'm convinced that before too long he will -he's already in the process of doing so i.m.o.- emulate his floor form on the big stage too. His diabetes must of course remain under control under very different circumstances and in particular temperatures which, looking at the likes of Barney, Rocket, Hammer, Jaws, etc., doesn't always go without saying.

Been fortunate to see some of the best of Jamie on the ProTour including a brilliant 144 check to beat Barney in Wigan this year.

IMO Jamie (and 1 or 2 others) has the ability, belief and dedication to make it in the higher echelons of the game and also produce it on the big stage with the 'big boys'.

Along with that, he's also a cracking fella apart from an 11-darter he chucked against me in Crewe. 9o mercy!! :-)

Jamie is building all the time and I expect more breakthrough results from him in the near future.

I never realised Jabba won the Masters. Mentioned by the dutch commentators. As they were having a comment on youth talent coming through.
