Don't write off top players, warns Davis

Steve Davis has warned the top players cannot be written off in future despite the shocks this week at the Travis Perkins UK Championship in York.

Stephen Maguire’s victory over Steve Davis at the Travis Perkins UK Championship last night hardly registered on the snooker Richter scale of shocks in York this week.

But Maguire’s 9-2 third-round win means another member of snooker’s top 16 elite is out of contention for the top prize.
