Ive had a good run, and if I can put Ronnie under pressure, he is human after all, he does miss balls. But you need to get off to a good start against Ronnie and put him under the cosh.Hes probably played about three hours in three matches. If I can play well theres no reason I cant win, but Ill have to be on top of my game because Ronnies the best player in the world by far.Shaun Murphy, the 2008 UK champion, edged home 6-5 against Dominic Dale, while Mark Williams won by the same margin against Ricky Walden after fighting back from 5-3 adrift.Tuesdays evening session saw Welshman Jamie Jones knock out Chinese world number five Ding Junhui 6-2, while Mark Allen of Nothern Ireland edged out Wales Ryan Day 6-5.Stephen Maguire won a final-frame decider to edge out Irelands Fergal OBrien 6-5, while Chinas Zhang Anda knocked out Englishman Mitchell Mann 6-3.

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- Highlight videos of offensive linemen are usually anything but knee-slapping sources of entertainment.Unless youre like Wesley Johnson -- and your New York Jets teammates get a hold of one.I wish it didnt exist, said Johnson, shaking his head Friday. I think its like a Ron Swanson deal (from `Parks and Recreation). I just dont like being on video, period.But theres Johnson, back in his college days at Vanderbilt in 2013, delivering a brief but passionate halftime speech , urging his Commodores teammates to step it up while holding a 10-7 lead over UMass. He smacks his helmet against a locker stall, knocking two nameplates off, and tosses his chair while finishing with an emphatic: Lets go!It worked.Final score: Vandy 24, UMass 7.Someone said, `Wesley should say something, and I was like, `Youre right, Im going to say something, Johnson recalled. Sure, it was fiery, but I was mumbling through it. We knew we were going to win, but we were playing bad. Thats what I was mad about.Jets left tackle Ben Ijalana saw a reporters tweet with a link to the video Thursday night and sent it to the rest of the offensive line.Our group chat exploded, guard Dakota Dozier said with a laugh. It was great.Even quarterback Geno Smith came over to compliment Johnson, who was in the middle of an interview.Hey, Smith said, that was a great halftime speech.It certainly has made the rounds -- even if Johnson would prefer it to fade into the nether regions of the internet.It just shows how passionate Wes is, Dozier said. I mean, thats honestly who he is. Hes a passionate man. I can totally get it where hes a little embarrassed, but at the end of the day, it makes you want to play with the guy. Youve got a guy that fired up, it rubs off.Johnson is about to get lots more playing time as he replaces the injured Nick Mangold for the final four games of the season, starting with Sunday at San Francisco.Wes has done a good job, coach Todd Bowles said. Hes getting better every week. The big thing about him is that hes smart and hes a fighter.Mangold was placed on season-ending injured reserve on Thursday with a severe ankle injury. Johnson stepped in for Mangold for four games after the seven-time Pro Bowl selection initially sprained the ankle against Baltimore on Oct. 23. Mangold returned last Monday, but re-injured it against Indianapolis.The 32-year-old Mangold is due nearly $6.075 million in base salary next year and the Jets could save $9.dddddddddddd75 million on the salary cap by cutting him. Johnson is scheduled to be a restricted free agent, but could be a younger -- he turns 26 next month -- and cheaper option for New York. So, these last four games could be, in essence, an audition for Johnson.It would be bad to think about that, Johnson said. Its kind of the mental fortitude thing where youve got to focus on the 49ers. If I look past that, Im doing everyone in the locker room a disservice.Johnson has been solid in relief of Mangold this season while continuing to develop as an NFL center.I think that we all have great expectations for Wes and his future, offensive coordinator Chan Gailey said recently. I think hes got the chance to be a very good football player before its over with. I mean hes not Nick Mangold, but theres not many of them out there that are.Johnson was a four-year starter at Vanderbilt, where he established himself as a versatile lineman by playing tackle, center and guard. He was voted an offensive co-captain by his teammates his final two seasons, and capped his college career by being drafted by Pittsburgh in the fifth round in 2014.Johnson was waived by the Steelers early during his rookie season after not suiting up for the first five games, and the Jets claimed him two days later. He didnt play in any games for New York that season, but saw action in 10 last year -- including filling in for an injured Mangold for one.He worked all along the line this summer, including at center, proving himself to be a valuable backup.Coming out of college, I had played left tackle the last few years, and the talk was, hey, this guy has played most of the positions, so that could be where he fits in, Johnson said. I was just looking to help out as much as I can and once a spot opened up, see if I can take advantage of that opportunity -- at whatever the spot it is. And, its happened to be at center.Other than that infamous Vandy video, theres not a lot on the internet on the Nashville native, who comes across as low-key and humble. He enjoys military history, the HBO show Game of Thrones and the Song of Ice and Fire novel on which the hit series is based.Im an OK guy, Johnson said, laughing.
