Selby’s big break

Defending champion Mark Selby made history at the UK Championship in York on Saturday when he completed the 100th maximum break in professional snooker during his winning semifinal against Ricky Walden. The Englishman’s 147 will earn him a prize of 55,000 pounds (US$90,000) in addition to a 4,000-pound bonus for recording the highest break in the tournament — provided his achievement is not matched. Selby made the break in the seventh frame. He then went on to complete a 9-5 win to set up a meeting with Australian world No. 1 Neil Robertson in the final.
