Snooker Championship between Stephen Hendry and Peter Ebdon over the best of
35 frames can be seen live over the internet courtesy of BBC online.
At the following times stated in EDT in the United States, go to the BBC

Sunday, May 5
First Session's play (8 frames):
10:00 am - 1:00pm
Second session's play (8 frames):
3:00pm - 5:30pm
Monday, May 6
Third session's play (8 frames):
10:00 am - 1:00pm
Fourth session's play (11 frames):
3:00pm - 5:30pm
If session's run longer than the time allocated for broadcast, it is usual
practice for the BBC will stay with it until the very end -- the reason why
the Embassy World Championship concludes on a Monday for which may seem an
odd day, is for the first Monday in May in the UK is a national holiday.
It's a repeat of the 1996 Embassy World Championship final which Hendry won
18-12, and he will start as favorite to pick up the $377,000 first prize and
to win his eighth world title. It should however be a very high-quality
final and one not to be missed.
