Fantasy Snooker Update: Scottish Open

Ronnie O'Sullivan's fantastic victory in the final of the UK Championship has put another trophy on his mantle, a big cheque in his pocket and a whole host of fantasy league points on to the totals of many players in this season's competition.

Only two players had losing finalist Shaun Murphy, and of those a huge mention must go to Protoursnooker who had both Murphy and O'Sullivan and has subsequently leaped up the table. Next up on the calendar is the Scottish Open which starts in just 12 hours time up in Glasgow, but first let's see what the first double points event of the season has done to the full table.

I have already had a number of tweets and messages in with picks and tweeted my own two "Beat the Boss" picks for this week as Joe Perry and Yan Bingtao. If you are yet to get your picks in the deadline is 10am on Monday 11th December.

This is now the final event before the Christmas break, and next up will be another double points event at the Masters so why not use a captain's pick if you have been saving one up.
