Michael Holt will now play 2024 world runner-up Jak Jones, who defeated 2023 Crucible champion Luca Brecel in the final match of Monday.

Brecel, seeded seventh became the sixth seed to lose in three days. He was 42-0 ahead in the deciding frame, only for Jones to make a 66 break to snatch a 6-5 victory after he had been 5-3 down.

"I thought I'd played pretty decently from 5-3 down," said Jones. "You always want to do well in the biggest tournaments and this is the second biggest tournament on the tour and I felt good towards the end."

Michael Holt, who has made the last 16 of the UK Championship for the first time since 1999, with a 6-1 win over 10th seed Gary Wilson, said: "That score flattered me and it was closer than that.

"This time last year I was getting ready to go to Q Tour 5 in Brighton, which I won, and now to think a year later I'm in the last 16 of the UK Championship so that's something I'm really pleased with.

"My game is there, it has always been there, I just have to try to let it out. To be in this arena, I obviously loved it, the crowd were great and this is a brilliant tournament."

On dropping off the tour in 2022, he added: "You always believe [you can get back] but you never know what's going to happen. Being off the tour did hurt but it was one of the best things to happen to me.

"I've always appreciated it [being a professional] and you realise you are privileged. I dropped off the tour and the world kept turning. The way I got back on was a confidence boost.

"I'm enjoying it, the nerves are always there."

Michael Holt, a player that dropped off the World Snooker Tour between 2022 and 2024, stunned 10th seed Gary Wilson to move into the last 16 of the UK Championship for the first time since 1999.

Holt, 46, was top of the Q Tour rankings last season to earn his place back on the tour and went into this match 98th in the standings after fighting through four rounds of qualifying last week at the Mattioli Arena in Leicester.

He and Wilson shared the opening two frames, before Holt edged the third on the black and then the fourth. Breaks of 69 and 95 took Holt one away from victory and he looked on course for the victory, only to snooker himself after potting the brown with only three balls remaining.

But Wilson could not capitalise on the chances as Holt potted a long-range pink to secure a superb victory.

Holt will now play either 2023 world champion Luca Brecel or 2024 world runner-up Jak Jones in the next round. Brecel leads 5-3 in that one.

Since the mid-session interval, Jak Jones has only scored two points in two frames, as Luca Brecel has jumped into a 4-2 lead, with a break of 94 in frame six. Two more frames and he advances.

On table two, a lengthy safety battle, with the pink close to the pocket surrounded by a number of reds, dragged on and on, until a re-rack was declared. When it started again, Michael Holt took the frame and is now one away from the last 16.

Gary Wilson in huge danger of becoming the fifth seed to fall in three days.

On table one we're just starting the mid-session interval and it's at 2-2, with Luca Brecel drawing level after Jak Jones' fine break of 96 had given him the lead in frame three.

But it's been slow progress in comparison to the other table, which has already completed one frame after the break. Michael Holt, 98th in the world and 46 years old, is 4-1 ahead against 10th seed Gary Wilson and closing in on the last 16.

The last time Holt reached that stage of this tournament was 25 years ago, back in 1999 when he eventually lost in the quarter-finals.

Michael Holt, 98th in the world, has made a solid start in his match with 10th seed Gary Wilson.

Holt grabbed two tight frames, both on the black, to hold a 2-1 advantage. On table one, it is one frame each in the match-up between 2023 world champion Luca Brecel and 2024 world runner-up Jak Jones.

Both matches are still in their first frame after more than 20 minutes of action. It's going to be a long night.

The afternoon session finished not too long ago and it's now on to the evening session.

Luca Brecel, the 2023 world champion, is one of many whose images adorn the walls of the Cue Zone area, and he takes on 2024 Crucible runner-up Jak Jones.

On table two, 10th seed Gary Wilson faces world number 98 Michael Holt, a player who has had to battle through four qualifying rounds to get to the York Barbican.

What a run it has been for Holt. Can it extend further? We'll soon find out.

Some quotes from Chris Wakelin, who has moved into the last 16 of the UK Championship for the first time with a 6-4 victory over Matthew Selt.

"It was a tough one, really tough," said Wakelin. "I was never in front and managed to steal the ninth frame to go 5-4 in front and Matt didn't have much left towards the end so I knew if I could hold myself together I could get over the line.

"I'd never won a match at a BBC event and I've been on tour for 12 years so that's another box ticked in my career. I'm so proud of what I've managed to achieve. I feel I can win any tournament I play in."

On a last-16 match with reigning world champion Kyren Wilson, Wakelin added: "We've practiced together for 10-12 years. I beat him maybe six out of 10 times in practise. He has been improving so much over the last year and so have I."

Chris Wakelin was 2-0, 3-1 and 4-3 behind, but the 15th seed then won three frames in a row to get past a dogged challenge from Matthew Selt and move into the last 16 of the tournament for the first time.

Wakelin will now play world champion Kyren Wilson after he thrashed Stephen Maguire 6-0 earlier on today.

Michael Emons
BBC Sport at York Barbican

We started the session at 1pm and now just gone past five we are tied at 4-4 in the match between 15th seed Chris Wakelin and Matthew Selt.

Wakelin hit a break of 75 in frame three, followed by a 68 from Selt the frame after, but that has been in it in terms of half-century breaks.

The evening session will start at 7pm and if this match is not completed soon they may well have to come back and finish off on the first available table following tonight's two matches.

In the opening frames earlier on, Kyren Wilson appeared to be struggling and he later revealed he had woken up with a migraine.

"In the first frame I hit a 60 and Stephen could tie the frame and as I went back to my seat I felt a pulsation and it was really strong around the top of my head," said Wilson.

"It felt like my head was going to explode. It was something I had to overcome and thankfully my brother got me some headache tablets and I was able to get it under control."

For Wilson, this was his first match at a Triple Crown event since his success at the Crucible in May and he admitted being introduced as the world champion and the crowd's reaction gave him "goosebumps".

"I've been dreaming of being world champion since I was six," he added. "Since lifting that silver lady [on the top of the trophy] I've made an effort to not only enjoy it but also use it as a catalyst to really kickstart my career.

"The BBC events have that little bit of excitement factor and this is the first one since becoming world champion. It was an amazing entry into the arena and I really enjoyed it."

Some quotes from Stephen Maguire after his 6-0 loss to Kyren Wilson.

"It's very tough," he said. "I either think of what I'm doing in this game or I push forwards and do some hard graft. Everything is a bit of a blur from the second frame onwards. That was poor, there's no other words.

"I still despise getting beaten, but I also despise playing like that. There's getting beaten and there's not showing up. For me to enjoy it, I need to play well and be competitive. I will just go back to the practice table and do work.

"I need to get back to these venues. I was nervous, and mad at myself for being nervous and it kind of carried on."

Reigning world champion Kyren Wilson moved into the second round of the UK Championship with a convincing 6-0 victory against former winner Stephen Maguire.

Both players were struggling for form on table one, with Wilson's break of 71 in the fifth frame the first half-century of the match.

He then followed that up by winning the sixth frame as Maguire, the 2004 champion, suffered a tame exit from the tournament.

Wilson's victory comes after four of the 16 seeded players were eliminated from the tournament on the opening two days, including top seed and 2023 champion Ronnie O'Sullivan and fifth seed Mark Selby.

But Wilson, ranked second in the world, moved into the last 16 with ease to set up a match against either 15th seed Chris Wakelin or former UK quarter-finalist Matthew Selt.

The best break of the match so far came in frame five as Kyren Wilson hit an effort of 71 to move 5-0 up ahead Stephen Maguire, who now needs to win every remaining frame if he's to advance.

We expected the match between Kyren Wilson and Stephen Maguire to be one of the clashes of the first round, but it has been an error-strewn affair, with neither player getting a half-century break so far.

They have played four frames and Wilson has won them all. The stats below don't make pretty reading for Maguire.

However, if the Scot wants some encouragement, Jack Lisowski only scored six points in the opening three frames yesterday against Mark Selby only to turn the match around and win 6-4.

Reigning world champion Kyren Wilson, who was apparently struggling with a headache earlier on, is 3-0 up and at the table as he looks to seal a perfect on-table first mini session in his match with Stephen Maguire.

Over on table two, they are currently in the mid-session interval with 15th seed Chris Wakelin having work to do as he trails 3-1 against Matthew Selt.

If you're a budding snooker player yourself or just feeling inspired by watching the professionals then there is the perfect spot for you at the York Barbican.

One of the most popular areas before the matches and in the intervals is the WPBSA Cue Zone area. There you can try your luck on the miniature tables, or watch exhibitions on a full-sized table. Snooker professionals are also on hand to answer fans questions, take the public through training routines and offer advice.

Alternatively, to the right of the room and behind the glass, you can watch the UK Championship entrants take part in their practice sessions.

When I was there earlier on, Kyren Wilson was going through his training drills just before starting his match with Stephen Maguire.

That practice is paying off as Wilson leads 2-0 in a race to six, with Scotsman Maguire getting frustrated at how things are going.

The frame took more than half an hour, but it is two in a row for Matthew Selt as he doubles his advantage over 15th seed Chris Wakelin.

For 15th seed Wakelin, this is his first appearance in the last 32 of the UK Championship as he had never got through qualifying before, but this time gets to the venue automatically through his world ranking.

Selt is a former UK quarter-finalist, something he achieved in 2015 when he beat Robbie Williams and Luca Brecel before losing to Mark Selby. He has also reached the last 16 in 2023, 2021 and 2014, with wins over Ali Carter, Judd Trump and Rory McLeod respectively.

Kyren Wilson and Stephen Maguire are trying to negotiate a lengthy frame as well, with their second frame also past the half-hour mark.
