    John Higgins in his news conference after losing 13-8 to Kyren Wilson: "He just overpowered me. I told him at the end it was the best I had seen him. The best man won.

    “I was really lethargic in the second session. To get out at 9-7, I felt like I’d won the lottery but he was too strong. I hope he is holding the trophy aloft with his son on Bank Holiday Monday.

    “I am committing to playing snooker and committed to trying to get back playing here. I don’t want that to be my last match at the Crucible.“

    Bingham one frame away from a famous victory. A sublime century break of 104 under pressure.

    O'Sullivan needs to win three frames in a row to keep his hopes alive of that eighth world title.

    So six-time world champion Steve Davis has officially named the delay due to spectators taking their seats as 'Doorgate'.

    "It was one of the most abstract moments you've seen with people coming down the stairs," said BBC presenter Rishi Persad.

    Ronnie failed to clinch the frame, which would have been great if he could have done it.

    For a minute Ronnie showed some frustration, the tension is ramped up out there.

    There was a little bit of disbelief in the media room when play briefly came to a halt then.

    Ronnie O'Sullivan was clearly unhappy and while it was an unorthodox course of action to take, if he wins this frame he will feel it was justified.

    I've never seen this before at the Crucible, particularly at such an important stage in the match.
