Ali Carter has lost twice in World Championship finals to snooker GOAT Ronnie O'Sullivan, but feels his form is good enough to go one better in Sheffield this year. Carter followed up his 6-5 victory over Judd Trump in the first round of the Players Championship with a 6-1 quarter-final drubbing of Welsh Open champion Robert Milkins on Wednesday night to reach the semi-finals in Wolverhampton. Ad After lifting a second German Masters title at the outset of the month with a 10-3 win against Tom Ford, Carter – a world finalist in 2008 and 2012 – admits he is finding top form at exactly the right time ahead of the sport's biggest event in April.
