2007 Masters (snooker)
The 2007 SAGA Insurance Masters professional non-ranking snooker tournament was held from January 14 to January 21, 2007 in the Wembley Arena, London. It was the 33rd edition of the tournament. In a slight change for 2007, there were 19 competitors, as opposed to 18 up until 2006. The top 16 seeds for ranking events were automatically invited, while the other players entered a qualifying tournament for the right to one of three wildcard places. The two remaining places were granted by the game's governing body at their discretion, to Jimmy White and Ding Junhui. Stuart Bingham won the qualifying tournament.
It was won by Ronnie O'Sullivan, who defeated Ding Junhui 10–3 in the final.

Famous quotes containing the word masters:
“The spiritual kinship between Lincoln and Whitman was founded upon their Americanism, their essential Westernism. Whitman had grown up without much formal education; Lincoln had scarcely any education. One had become the notable poet of the day; one the orator of the Gettsyburg Address. It was inevitable that Whitman as a poet should turn with a feeling of kinship to Lincoln, and even without any association or contact feel that Lincoln was his.”
—Edgar Lee Masters (1869–1950)
