Chinese teenager Ding Junhui, seen here in May 2006, continued his impressive run at the British Masters at Wembley when he crushed former world champion Stephen Hendry 6-2 in their semi-final.   Jan. 21 - Ronnie O'Sullivan faces a mouthwatering Masters final against Chinese teenager Ding Junhui at Wembley Arena on Sunday.

 

According to Reuters, twice champion O'Sullivan made his Masters experience count to beat Scotland's Stephen Maguire 6-4 in the second of Saturday's best-of-11 frame semi-finals to set up the showdown.

 

Earlier, Ding reached the final with a 6-2 victory over six-time winner Stephen Hendry.

 

After a slow start the 19-year-old quickly found his form and, having led 3-1 at the interval, finished the job with the loss of only one more frame to oust the Scot.

 

"I've not reached by best form yet, but I will try to play well in the final," said Ding, speaking through a translator.

 

O'Sullivan, who has refused to speak to the media this week following his unprecedented walkout at last month's UK Championship, struggled to find top gear.

 

'The Rocket' won the opening frame with a 76 break but from then on the play was scrappy.
