Ding said after the match: "If I hadn't missed that blue it would definitely have gone to a final frame. Mark played well in the end. I should have won more frames and taken my chances earlier in the session. I had too many mistakes but that is what happens.
"I can see myself improving a lot, I played with more confidence and more aggression. The fans need to see more snooker like that. They want to see fast snooker and centuries. I'm happy with how I did this time.
"I'm disappointed to lose when I played well, but sometimes you have to take it, because it is sport. I've got more experience here, I'm just over 30 and there is still a long way to go and many years left here. I believe next year will be good."
Selby spoke highly of the Chinese star, "I was over the moon to come out 12-12 last night because I thought Ding probably deserved the lead. He scored better than me, he played great, his safety was good, he had three centuries last night. All that you're asking for is to be going into that final session with a chance.
"This year he knew what to expect on the one table set up and I thought he played fantastic. It was only one or two balls here and there that was the difference between me winning or him winning. As a player he's matured, as a person he's matured, his temperament around the table is fantastic. It's only a matter of time before he comes here and wins it."
"It was a great game to be involved in. Ding missed that blue in the last frame, I had resigned myself to going 16-16.
