Selby has point to prove in UK Championship

Mark Selby will be a man on a mission in Telford when the Maplin UK Championship gets underway tomorrow, with the world number four hoping to go one stage further than last year.

The ’Jester from Leicester’ was just one frame away from a place in the final last year when his last-four opponent Ronnie O’Sullivan rattled in a stunning 147 maximum break to wrap up the match.
