McManus sets up Doherty clash

John Higgins joined Ding Junhui on the Crucible casualty list as the four-time world champion was bundled out in Sheffield by his fellow Scot Alan McManus.

A second successive first-round loss at the Dafabet World Championship for Higgins came on the back of a misfiring performance, as he lost 10-7 to hand McManus, whose tartan trousers caught the eye, a shot at Ken Doherty in the last 16.
