  3. 'An incredible tournament'published at 23:26 Greenwich Mean Time 24 November 2024

    Result: Selby 4-6 Lisowski

    BBC Sport at York Barbican

    Some quotes now from Jack Lisowski after he fought back from 3-0 down to beat two-time champion Mark Selby 6-4.

    "It's all a bit of a blur," admitted Lisowski, who plays Ali Carter in the last 16.

    "I played well, good safety and good scoring. Wherever I go I play quite risky snooker so the crowd always wants to see something and make a game of it.

    "There's something about the crowd at York. It's really grown here and it's turned into an incredible tournament and the crowd are a part of that."

    Result: Selby 4-6 Lisowski

    Michael Emons
    BBC Sport at York Barbican

    Two-time UK Championship winner Mark Selby lost in the first round of the 2024 event as fellow Englishman Jack Lisowski produced a superb fightback at the York Barbican on Sunday evening.

    Lisowski, 21st in the world rankings, was 3-0 behind and had only scored six points as Selby dominated the early stages with two stunning centuries.

    But Lisowski got back into the match and, aided by breaks of 55, 63, 100, 70 and 61, won six of the next seven frames to take the victory 6-4 and set up a last-16 tie with Ali Carter.

    A shock did not look on the cards when Selby scored 329 points in the opening three frames, with Lisowski, who battled through two qualifying rounds, only potting a red and a blue.

    However, Selby felt a failure to go 4-0 in front proved critical.

    "I played well to go 3-0 then I misjudged a red in the next frame and that was probably the turning point of the match," said Selby.

    "If I had gone 4-0 I would've broken the back of the match, but Jack played well and I know he is capable of that. When his mind is right, he is capable of beating anyone.

    "I feel my game is OK and I'm losing to great players."

  5. Superb recovery takes Lisowski throughpublished at 23:08 Greenwich Mean Time 24 November 2024

    What a win for Jack Lisowski, 3-0 down and having only scored six points, but he did superbly to win six of the next seven frames to dump out two-time UK champion Mark Selby.

  6. Seeds in troublepublished at 22:30 Greenwich Mean Time 24 November 2024

    Two seeds are one frame away from being eliminated. Fifth seed Mark Selby, who was 3-0 up and in superb form, is 5-4 down against Jack Lisowski, while Si Jiahui, seeded 13th, trails 5-3 to Wu Yize.

  7. Top-class encounterpublished at 21:56 Greenwich Mean Time 24 November 2024

    Selby 4-4 Lisowski

    Michael Emons
    BBC Sport at York Barbican

    We're approaching 10pm at night and it's 4-4 in a superb match between Mark Selby and Jack Lisowski.

    Selby was 3-0 up, Lisowski took the next three to level up, Selby regained the lead thanks to a break of 61 and was 55-0 up in the eighth frame, only to run out of position with Lisowski capitalising with a run of 70.

    BBC Sport at York Barbican

    Jack Lisowski only potted two balls, a red and a blue to score six points, in the opening three frames of the match as it looked like he would be swept away by Mark Selby.

    But Lisowski has now won three frames on the bounce and the winner of this one is anyone's guess. He has just made a superb 100 clearance in frame six to delight and entertain the crowd.

    No centuries in the opening session today, now three in six frames in this match alone.

    On table two, 13th seed Si Jiahui is in trouble, 4-1 down to compatriot Wu Yize.

    Selby 3-1 Lisowski, Si Jiahui 0-3 Wu Yize

    A much-needed frame in the bag for Jack Lisowski after being frozen out of the first three, only scoring six points in the process.

    A break of 55 from Lisowski takes us to 1-3 in Mark Selby's favour at the mid-session interview.

    In the match between the two Chinese players, Wu Yize is 3-0 up against 13th seed Si Jiahui.

  10. Sensational Selbypublished at 20:01 Greenwich Mean Time 24 November 2024

    Selby 3-0 Lisowski

    Michael Emons
    BBC Sport at York Barbican

    Mark Selby is putting on an absolute masterclass so far. He has scored 329 points, compared to just six for Jack Lisowski and just rattled in a break of 136 for his second century of the match.

    That 136 goes to the top of the charts for this season's UK Championship (from the York phase).

    • 136 - Mark Selby
    • 135 - Ding Junhui
    • 130 - Robert Milkins
    • 128 - Ronnie O'Sullivan
    • 119 - Mark Selby.

    Elsewhere, China's Wu Yize has taken the opening two frames in his match with compatriot Si Jiahui.

  11. First century of the daypublished at 19:23 Greenwich Mean Time 24 November 2024

    BBC Sport at York Barbican

    We had 20 frames in the afternoon session and we did not see a single century, although Ali Carter came as close as possible with an effort of 99.

    But there's a century in the first frame of the evening, with Mark Selby running through a superb 119, before he faltered on the blue.

    What a start to Sunday's entertainment.

  12. Evening session under waypublished at 19:12 Greenwich Mean Time 24 November 2024

    The players are just making their way into the arena and it should be a great evening session.

    Two-time winner Mark Selby takes on Jack Lisowski on table one, with the all-Chinese affair between Si Jiahui and Wu Yize on table two.

    Result: Allen 6-4 Page

    Michael Emons
    BBC Sport at York Barbican

    More quotes from Mark Allen after his 6-4 win over Jackson Page. He said: "I looked around the arena thinking 'my last win here was against Ding [in the 2022 final] and I was trying to get those good images back in my brain.

    "I've been in three finals here, lost two, so I really enjoy this tournament. But it's not fun [at the moment], I'm not going to lie.

    "It's unsettling given how much I practice and consider how hard I've been working. I'm probably not as far as I think I am, I'm my worst critic. I couldn't enjoy any part of that match."

  14. 'A million miles away'published at 17:59 Greenwich Mean Time 24 November 2024

    Result: Allen 6-4 Page

    Michael Emons
    BBC Sport at York Barbican

    Mark Allen has just spoken to the media and was not pleased with how he performed.

    "I got the job done and that's pretty much it, it was awful," he said. "I'm not in a good place with my game, everything else is fine but with snooker I'm just struggling. I'm probably trying too hard, I just needed to give 100 per cent on every shot and nothing is coming easy for me.

    "It wasn't fun to be part of that match - I'm just playing like that all the time and it's hard to put my finger on why and that's the frustrating thing.

    "I'm doing all the things that got me to world number one, working really hard on the practice table but it's not coming easy. I'm hoping one performance turns it around but I feel a million miles away from that performance.

    "Jackson is a brilliant talent but not very experience on the big stage so I thought I would take advantage of that and it nearly backfired."

    It was a fine effort from world number 41 Jackson Page, but world number three Mark Allen has dug deep to battle through to the last 16, winning 6-4.

    Page, 23, was playing in his first match at the later stages of the UK Championship and performed well, leading 3-2, but Allen won four of the next five frames to get the job done.

    It was a largely scrappy affair, with Allen only making one break of more than 50 - a 56 in frame two - while Page made two half-century breaks, 56 in frame four and 76 in frame five.

  16. Great action from Jacksonpublished at 17:09 Greenwich Mean Time 24 November 2024

    Mark Allen was on the verge of the last 16 and led 51-36 in the ninth frame, only for Jackson Page to keep his hopes alive as he sunk the black to snatch the frame, 63-51.

    There's a maximum of two frames left in this one. Page needs both to cause a shock. Will it be two huge surprises in two days at the York Barbican?

    BBC Sport at York Barbican

    Some quotes now from Ali Carter, who moved into the last 16 thanks to a 6-4 victory over Ryan Day.

    "It's all about getting a win," said Carter. "Wins have been hard to come by of late and it has zapped my confidence. It was hard work from start to finish.

    "I found the table was quite heavy and to screw back was quite different, but you have to play on whatever the table is like.

    "I've had some good times here, but mostly terrible ones. I was 8-4 up in the [2012] semi-finals against Shaun Murphy and that went wrong 9-8 and I've not had too much success since then.

    "Everything is so dependent on doing well in the big ranking events. I've not had a good run here for a long time so let's hope it leads to one this year."

    Ali Carter is the first winner of Sunday, defeating Ryan Day 6-4 and it is the winner of tonight's match between Mark Selby and Jack Lisowski next up for Carter.

    Over on table one, Mark Allen has won three frames in a row to go from 3-2 down to 5-3 up, needing one more to join Carter in the last 16.

    It is the first time Carter has progressed past the last 32 of the UK Championship since 2012, when he reached the semi-finals - his joint best performance in the tournament.

    Ali Carter has just hit a break of 99, the best break of the match so far, to take him to one frame away from the winning line.

    He leads 5-3 against Ryan Day, while it is 3-3 on table one in the match between Mark Allen and Jackson Page.

    Jackson Page is 41st in the world and had to defeat Jamie Clarke and Hossein Vafaei in qualifying just to get to this stage, for his first appearance in the later stages of the UK Championship.

    The 23-year-old has been in good form as he reached the quarter-finals of the International Championship in Nanjing, China earlier this month.

    He could be causing a huge upset today as he leads Mark Allen 3-2, although he is only halfway to the winning target.

    But the Welshman has caused shocks in the past. On his way to the semi-finals at the 2024 World Open in March, he gained wins over multiple world champions John Higgins and Mark Selby, before losing to Judd Trump in the final four.
