In-form Dott makes 146

GRAEME DOTT became just the second man in World Championship history to make a 146 break as the resurgent Scot took charge of his semi-final against Mark Selby.

Dott maintained his dominance to open up a 10-6 lead, and requires just seven more frames today to secure a third appearance in the Crucible final.

Dott has been reborn as a snooker player since the darkest days of his depression, which followed several episodes of strife in his private life.
